On 13 April 2010 , Villagers appeared on '' Later ... with Jools Holland '' on BBC Two alongside Paul Weller , Hot Chip , Marina and the Diamonds , Gogol Bordello and Paul Rodgers . Shane Hegarty , writing in '' The Irish Times '' , noted in his praise for O’Brien that " Irishness was n't a factor ... The pithy introduction to his performance did n't mention it . It did n't need to . Viewers could have thought he was from Northampton or New York or anywhere " . His appearance included a performance of the single " Becoming a Jackal " , but then found himself stranded in Brussels due to the air travel disruption around Europe in the aftermath of the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland and had to miss a live performance on Record Store Day
