Roamer is an exciting new project that brings together four of Ireland’s most internationally active improvising musicians for a two-night run at Dublin's newest creative music hub.
Vocalist <A HREF="http://www.improvisedmusic.ie/artists/details/lauren-kinsella" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Lauren Kinsella</A> was recently announced as the 2016 Jazz FM UK Vocalist of the Year; saxophonist <A HREF="https://www.facebook.com/matthew.halpin.music/?fref=ts" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Matthew Halpin </A>was the first Irish musician to receive the presidential scholarship to study at the prestigious Berklee College of Music;<A HREF="http://www.improvisedmusic.ie/artists/details/simon-jermyn" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer"> Simon Jermyn</A> is one of the most in-demand creative music bassists in New York and drummer <A HREF="http://www.improvisedmusic.ie/artists/details/matthew-jacobson" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Matthew Jacobson</A> tours Ireland and Europe frequently with many leading improvising musicians and ensembles.
Although based in Dublin, Cologne, New York and London, this July will see the four artists come together for one week, each contributing original material aimed at affording them the highest levels of openness, spontaneity and communication.
