First ticket release Friday 27th August - read below for detailsFinal ticket release Wednesday 1st September.Down With Jazz is back and jazzing with a special edition to give a belated kick-start to the new roaring 20’s in the wake of you-know-what!“The festival with a sense of humour” (The Irish Times) harks back to 1930s Ireland when jazz and ‘foreign’ music was seen by the Catholic Church as a filthy force of corruption. A repressive ‘anti-jazz’ campaign arose to ban jazz from the dance halls and airwaves of Ireland, and protect the ‘morality’ of the sons and daughters of Erin.Today’s Down With Jazz festival connects 21st century Ireland’s vibrant and diverse music scene, with this notorious period in our social history, through a tongue-in-cheek presentation of some of the hottest jazz and improvised music acts around!Performing at this shameless Sunday of groove will be an array of the best ‘modren’ Irish jazz artists. Toot Sweet and the Shadowman bring a spirit of bayou funk led by jazz piano man Cian Boylan, invoking the spirit of The Big Easy with swampy Hammond grooves and a take-no-prisoners horn section. Drummer Conor Guilfoyle&#x27;s Latin Swing Quintet includes some of the best Latin musicians in Ireland for a high-octane experience of unstoppable groove. Aoife Doyle’s unique voice is equally at home with soul, folk, blues or jazz and can evoke memories of the sophisticated, velvet tones of Ella Fitzgerald, the earthy, sweet lyricism of Patsy Cline or the straight-up country clarity of Alison Krauss.TICKETING (Please read before booking)We look forward to welcoming you to Down With Jazz in Meeting House Square on Sunday 5th September!
