As part of its ongoing ‘off-site’ series, the Joinery is delighted to announce a night of improvised music by a select group of Dublin’s finest players at the Kevin Barry Rooms at the National Concert Hall. Traditionally a site for the more experimental and fringe works of the National Concert Hall programme, these rooms also have historical and cultural significance as the site of the 1921 Treaty debates. The purpose of the Joinery Off-site is to bring the Joinery programme to a wider audience by occupying a number of national institutions and other spaces on a temporary, improvised and ad-hoc basis. 

Performances will be solo and/or in small ensemble, from duo to quintet. For some of the performers this is an experiment in controlled noise, for others it’s an unknown melodic journey and for all it is the attempt to engage with others in the creation of something coherent from the unknown.

Performers:
European Sensoria Band & Colm O’Hara (Soprano sax, Guitar, Electronics, Drums, Bass, trombone) 
David Donohoe (Piano, Synths)
Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh (Viola)
Gavin Duffy (Laptop)
David Lacey (Percussion)
Cian Nugent (Guitar).

In collaboration with other spaces and institutions, the Joinery Off-Site presents a series of projects that includes exhibitions and performances. Previous events have taken place in Catalyst Arts in Belfast, the Roscommon Arts Centre and King House in Boyle, Co. Roscommon, the Grand Social in Dublin and the sitting rooms of Dublin 7.
