About this event
This Dublin-based jazz collective have been so successful with their renowned sessions at O’Regan’s in the city centre that they’re known by the name of the venue where they knock it out of the park, week after week!
Their weekly gigs at O’Regan’s every Tuesday night have become the stuff of legend – one of the most forward-looking jazz sessions in the city, it’s packed every week, and it’s packed with people who are on their feet from beginning to end.
The band move seamlessly between modern jazz, contemporary grooves, and reimagined standards, with influences ranging from Robert Glasper and Brad Mehldau to the cutting edge of today’s global jazz scene. The music is exploratory, high-energy, and deeply rooted in improvisation, creating a space where tradition and innovation meet.
The quartet are made up of pianist Luke Howard, bassist Diarmuid Lally, drummer Dylan Lynch, and saxophonist Denis Scully.
