SPRINTS joins host Raina Douris

When SPRINTS were recording their latest album, All That Is Over, they almost set the studio ablaze. Our brand new Sense of Place: Dublin series comes in hot on the World Cafe, kicking it off with a session from SPRINTS who talk about making their new album, finding success while the world feels like it’s on fire, and they perform a stripped back set in front of a live audience at Windmill Lane Recording Studios in Dublin.

Listen to the session here.
