About this event

Celebrating the music of The Tony Williams Lifetime Group

One of Ireland's leading improvising musicians Tommy Halferty join's forces with two of Ireland's leading jazz musicians' Scott Flanigan - Hammond Organ & Kevin Brady - Drums to perform a short Tour of Ireland.

The Tony Williams Lifetime was founded in 1969 as a power trio with John McLaughlin on electric guitar, and Larry Young (a.k.a.Khalid Yasin) on organ. The band was possibly named for Williams' debut album as a bandleader, Life Time, released on Blue Note in 1964.

The group will perform a selection of music from this infamous group as well as exciting new original compositions by members of the group.
