Read more: Building the Scene: Arthur’s Jazz Jam Returns Every Monday
When the first Arthur’s Jazz Jam took place on 17 January 2024, it began what would become a regular meeting point for musicians and listeners on Dublin’s jazz scene. Now, more than two and a half years later, the jam is entering a new chapter, relaunching as a weekly Monday-night fixture at Arthur’s Blues & Jazz Club through the end of 2026.
Led by saxophonist and flautist Hayley Kavanagh and guitarist Eric Doyle under their Cookin’ Dublin banner, the jam has become about considerably more than filling a Monday night.
It provides a high-quality but financially accessible night of live music, while creating a space where professional and emerging musicians can meet on the bandstand.
Each session opens with an invited band of working jazz musicians before moving into an open jam, operated through a sign-up list. For professional players, it offers an opportunity to perform with musicians they may not ordinarily work with and to try new ideas in a live setting. For emerging musicians, it provides valuable stage time alongside more experienced players in a real performance environment.
