Interference was an Irish folk-rock group with a profound influence on the local music scene, largely due to their poetic songwriting and evocative sound. Formed in the late 1980s in Cork, the band was fronted by the enigmatic singer-songwriter Fergus O'Farrell, who was known for his haunting voice and powerful presence despite battling with muscular dystrophy throughout his life. O'Farrell's indomitable spirit and the band's intimate musicality captivated audiences, allowing Interference to carve out a significant place in Irish music lore.

The band's work gained wider recognition posthumously for O'Farrell after their song "Gold" was featured in the award-winning film "Once," and the subsequent Broadway and West End productions of the same name. Their most recent releases showcase the depth and range of their music, with "Breaking Out (Original Soundtrack)" contributing to the 2019 documentary about O'Farrell's life and music. "The Sweet Spot" and "Interference Live In Dingle" further capture the band's live performance energy and chemistry, while their self-titled album "Interference" is a testament to their enduring musical legacy. Even after O'Farrell's passing in 2016, the band continues to be celebrated for their heartfelt melodies and the emotional resonance of their lyrics, embodying the enduring spirit of their beloved frontman.
