About this event

J.M Synge Lecture Hall,The Arts Block, Trinity College Dublin

Steve Gadd is arguably the greatest living drummer playing today. His scores of achievements and significant moments, where he effected music forever, are countless.

Gadd comes to Dublin on November 5th on a special invitation from The Trinity College Jazz Society to conduct a masterclass prior to two performance in Lost Lane, Dublin 2 on Wednesday November 6th.

Gadd has for a long time been instrumental in changing the landscape of modern drumming. His performance on Steely Dan's Aja changed everything and inspired a generation of musicians to want to play like Gadd. Drummers want to play like Gadd because quite simply he is perfect.

Over the decades he has had long spells playing with iconic names in music like Paul Simon, Eric Clapton and James Taylor. All the while he has worked with his own projects such as The Gadd Gang and Gadd About and is a leading figure in the Jazz scene.

How, for one evening we get close up and personal with Gadd and get an insight into his flawless technique, how he achieves such incredible rhythm, and thoughts on his exacting precision.
