Paul Dunlea Quintet

Although at home in a variety of musical styles – Trombonist/Composer/Arranger – Paul Dunlea concentrates primarily on Jazz and Improvisation. This has furthered his reputation as one of Ireland’s most in demand musicians.

Dunlea has performed/toured/recorded with the likes of Michael Bublé, Cassandra Wilson, RAYE, Frankie Valli, Liam O’Maonlaoi, Mick Flannery, Richard Reed Parry (Arcade Fire), Bryce Dressner (The National), Lewis Nash, Peter Washington, Billy Drummond, David O’ Rourke’s O’ Rourkestra, Sachal Vasandani, John Clayton, RTE Concert Orchestra, National Symphony Orchestra, The Dublin City Jazz Orchestra, The New Irish Jazz Orchestra, Bansangu Orchestra, The Syd Lawrence Orchestra & The Hothouse Big Band.

Dunlea has assembled some of the best improvising musicians from Ireland and the UK for his forthcoming release on Whirlwind Recordings and this concert presents an opportunity to hear material from that new release as well as other original compositions and contemporary takes on favourite standards.
