Little taste of The Kobe Trio tonight at The Dock Arts Centre - stunning tunes! 🎼

Getting excited for The Kobe Trio ft. Ciaran Wilde, Doors 7.30pm at The Dock Arts Centre, Tickets €16

The Kobe Trio, formed in late 2016, is a piano trio based in Sligo. They came together through a love of improvised music, performing a blend of original, contemporary and classic instrumental jazz with an adventurous and passionate interplay. The atmospheric harmonies are contrasted with interlaced rhythmic grooves and collective improvisations. Combining the sounds scapes of Cinematic Orchestra with the syncopated rhythms of Phronesis and the jagged melodies of Thelonious Monk.
With Mark Murphy on piano, Jaimie Carswell on bass and Con Schmaucks on drums this trio have played in some of the best jazz venues in the area including Sligo Jazz Festival, Cairde Arts Festival and The Model Contemporary Arts Centre.
The trio will be joined by Ciaran Wilde on saxophone. Ciaran started playing professionally at 16. He has led the Dublin City Jazz Orhestra and his alto and clarinet can be found on various Irish movie soundtracks as well as various artists such as Louis Stewart, Brian Kennedy, Van Morrison, The Pogues, Sharon Shannon to name a few.
