I was delighted to have two gigs recently, both hosted by the Improvised Music Company. The first, Blind Date Jazz was an interesting concept and featured a duo (w/ bassist Derek Whyte. Both artists are unknown to each other prior to the performance and only revealed three quarter ways through the performance. There was not even prior knowledge as to with what instrument we would be performing. The whole performance and interview can be viewed on youtube https://youtu.be/ilKDE9O2ZnE
The second will be available for view on March 20th. Icons of Jazz, The Hugh Buckley Organ Trio w/ Darragh Hennessy, organ and Dominic Mullan on drums, perform the music of Wes Montgomery. Details @ https://www.improvisedmusic.ie/events/
It was great to get out and play some music with real people, the first time in exactly a year. Roll on the good times…
