It will feature contributions from Siobhan MacGowan, Glen Hansard, Nick Cave, the producer of Fairytale of New York Steve Lillywhite, Imelda May, and Hot Press editor Niall Stokes.

There will also be material from the Hot Press archive, from Shane’s family and from the family of the late Frank Murray, the band’s original manager. Epic said it will be a 'must-see' for music fans.
