In 1970s Ireland, the nation's youth were craving an escape - and music was going to provide it.

Over the course of the next few decades, what had been a gigging backwater was transformed into the centre of the live entertainment universe.

Fields of Dreams tells the story of that remarkable change through the trailblazers who made it happen.

Narrated by singer songwriter Róisín O, this 10-part series chronicles the rise of the festival and the extraordinary local scene that saw many Irish acts touch greatness.

With stories equally hilarious and infuriating, it's a portrait of success and failure and everything in between.

Episodes released weekly every week.

From the producers of the Stardust Tragedy, the Kinahans, This Is Your LOIfe and This Is Robert.
