At a glance
About this event
Featuring Nigel Mooney (guitar and vocals), Scott Flanagan (organ) and Dominic Mullan (drums).
Nigel Mooney is widely regarded as one of Ireland's leading jazz singer and guitarists. A charismatic figure on the Dublin jazz and blues scenes since the early 1980's, his Gripewater Blues Band spearheaded the blues movement in Ireland and drew many fans of both jazz and the blues. A self-taught musician, Mooney was influenced by the blues from an early age and his hard-bop style of guitar playing is expressive and melodic with a bluesy groove. He possesses a warm and rich tenor voice and has an almost flawless sense of pitch.
