Today’s Playlist: at Celtic New Year time. Some wanderings in the playlist plus a new hope for Irish jazz in Rory Gill
More from MARLBANK including word on rising star the former Bourbon Street Jazz Trio Irish guitarist on the rise Rory Gill who plays the Lough Erne Resort regularly with a singer, heard with the Brendan O’Dowda-like Andrew Irwin in the summer and playing the blues on bass guitar with Sidewalk Boogie last year.
Rising star Rory Gill performing at Saddlers with Andrew Irwin and Joe Hill on 7 August. Rory, who hails from Irvinestown in County Fermanagh, is related to Waringstown jazz drummer David Lyttle who runs the Dock Street Jazz Club in Belfast and is the son of the Rico and his Band guitarist exiled Janner Cris Gill.
