About the event
Kicking off will be the acclaimed Paul Dunlea Big Band, who have been selling out large venues all over the country, and who are recognised internationally for being an ensemble that provides a platform for Ireland’s finest jazz improvising talent and big band virtuosi. They will be joined on stage by one of Irelands most talented vocalists, Gemma Sugrue.
Following this, the The Syd Lawrence will take to the stage with their own exciting blend of high octane Big Band Swing and Classic Dance Music. The Orchestra’s repertoire ranges from the wartime million sellers of the legendary Glenn Miller through the era of the great Count Basie Orchestra to the hit songs of Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald.
For aficionados of Big Band music, and for anyone who loves the classics of the genre, this is a show simply too good to miss out on!
