Andy speaks to Conor and Gary from The Scratch at 2000 Trees. Topics include the band's history with the festival, how a group of metalheads accidentally invented their folk-metal acoustic sound by jamming on cajons and learning Christy Moore, Damien Dempsey and Planxty; the physical challenge of playing metal riffs on acoustic guitar; the technical breakdown of their dual-output guitar rig (acoustic signal and humbucker signal both running into a Quad Cortex separately); Cole Clark's PPG three-mic pickup system; and upcoming dates including Bloodstock main stage and a European headline tour.
