Essentially Pop Meets: Outsider And Talks About #FIFA2018 And ‘Míol Mór Mara’ At #IrishMusicParty

Lisa spoke to Seán Ó Corcoráin, aka Outsider, ahead of his performance at the first ever Irish Music Party showcase, held at Dublin’s Workmans Club on 31 March 2018.
Seán, who perfoms with his band under the name Outsider, is the only Irish artist on the #FIFA2018 soundtrack, with the song ‘Míol Mór Mara’. Not only that, but it’s the first instance of a song which includes the Irish language included in any FIFA soundtrack. A high honour, and well deserved.

Netflix’s LOST IN SPACE – The Robinsons’ Journey

This remake of the original 1965 series of the same name, arguably the original Sci-Fi series as it pre-dates the first episode of Star-Trek by a whole year, has been rebooted for the new Netflix generation, and what a reboot it is. The production team of Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless (Dracula Untold and The Last Witch Hunter) have taken Irwin Allen’s creation and given it steroids. Stunning visuals, great special effects and big budgets, this has the lot. It’s the story of one family, the Robinsons, sent to colonise new worlds, who along the way, crash-land.

Justina Valentine – ‘The Real Justina’

Justina Valentine will be a familiar name with regular readers of EP, as we’ve written about her no fewer than four times over the past year and a half. Last year, 2017, was a banner year for Justina. Apart from her stunning videos ‘Deep End’, Crushing On You’, and ‘Sunlight’, she cemented herself in the celebrity firmament by becoming a fan favourite on Nick Cannon’s ‘Wild ‘N Out’, where she’s developed a reputation for her freestyle talent as well as her huge personality – who could forget her freestyling while riding a mechanical bull? Justina has also been enlisted to be a part of the new season of MTVs ‘The Challenge: Chamsp vs Stars’, where she’s more than held her own, in some of the most gruelling of competitions.
