Great things were predicted for Villagers after they made their OXEGEN debut last year and they now stand on the cusp of major international success.

Conor J. O?Brien?s song-writing ability has been compared to Leonard Cohen and The Frames by The New York Times and Villagers have also been getting five star reviews for their breathtaking debut album ?Becoming A Jackal? from critics both in Ireland and abroad.  A real contender for album of the year.
