At a glance
About this event
Nigel Mooney, widely regarded as one of Ireland's leading jazz singer and guitarists is back for his annual Christmas show at the Bello Bar on 19th of December.
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.
