- Dara’s back with another edition of The Greenlight Podcast, and this week he sits down with filmmaker, musician and all-round sonic thinker, Myles O’Reilly.
Myles opens up about a near-death experience in 2014 and how it reshaped everything: creativity, ambition, love, and what it even means to “exist” in the world. They get into neurodivergence, childhood triggers, the value of slowing down, and why the studio should be a place where time stops.
Plus: the Juno Falls years, getting signed, being moulded by labels, leaving music to film the artists he adores (from Lisa Hannigan to Glenn Hansard), and the incredible spoken-word/ambient projects with Michael D. Higgins and his late friend Manchán Magan.
