I saw the Milwaukee WI show. It was my 7th or so time. Awesome show. Really wanted her to play this as it’s a highlight of the new lp. She did not, thanks for posting.
Fabulous rendition of the LANKUM song about the prostitutes who served the soldiers on the plains of Kildare called the Curragh; and they called the Curragh wrens. This is modern Irish poetry at its finest. Pared down, no superfluity, I cried.
One of many highlites of the evening.

Thanks to Natalie the upcoming concert of Lankum at Paradiso Amsterdam is already sold out!
The song is based on a true story of the Wrens of the Curragh (County Kildare - Ireland).
