Yesterday we commenced our annual pilgrimage to Royal Hospital Kilmainham for Bulmers Forbidden Fruit. Now in it's seventh year, the festival continues to thrive boasting big international acts but more impressively a wealth of homegrown talent.
Ready for #BULMERSFF17 day two?😎🎶

If you're en route this will get you buzzing!
Festival goers danced through a few downpours at Jax Jones. Despite his early stage time he already had the place packed. The crowd understandably went extra wild for "Housework" and "You Don't Know Me".

Le Boom, an Irish electro-indie-house-pop duo had us hopping with their bottle banging beats. The energy Chris and Aimee bring to the stage is infectious. Their feel good tunes are a must see at summer festivals.
Ridiculous energy from @MangoDassle on the Bulmers live stage! Dublin rapper, remember the name! #BULMERFF17 pic.twitter.com/430NnBNfzo

Irish rapper use to be a cringe inducing description, never again once you've seen Mango speeding effortlessly through his verses. The Dublin wordsmith riled the crowd with his brutally honest lyrics about life in this city and had the Bulmers Live Stage on wheels by the end of his set, concluding with "Lord Hear Us".
A serious set to groove to from Tara Stewart closed out the night at the Bulmers Live Stage. Her mix of Hip Hop and RnB classics from Fat Man Scoop, J-Lo, Destiny's Child among others, have left a lot of us without a voice today. Orbital wrapped up day one on the Original Stage as we were treated to a break from the rain and a stunning sunset. Bring on day two, we'll see you there!
