Read more: Alfa Mist announces a headline show for Whelans, Dublin 8th December 2021
To celebrate the release of his brand-new album ‘Bring Backs’ due for release on Friday, 23rd April 2021, Alfa Mist has announced a headline show for Whelans, Dublin 8th December 2021. Tickets will go on sale Friday, 16th April 2021 at 10AM from Tickets.ie and Ticketmaster.ie.
First teaching himself to produce beats as a schoolkid in East Ham, London, Alfa then went on to discover jazz through the sampling of hip-hop of producers like Hi-tek, Madlib and J Dilla. Delving deeper, he taught himself the piano by ear as a means to dissect these formative records’ harmonic intricacies, gradually forming his own production style of head-nodding rhythms combined with the immediacy of jazz improvisation, all tied together with a pervasive sense of melody.

Ballydehob Jazz Festival has against all the odds this year rolled out another outstanding festival programme featuring some of Irelands finest contemporary Jazz artists.
May Bank Holiday Weekend ( 30th April – 3rd May)
While we will not be taking to the streets this May Bank Holiday Weekend or piling into venues to watch live music , Ballydehob Village have been working hard to plan events so we can celebrate the Community, the Art and the Music that makes this the best small festival in the West!
Last year BJF, which has been running since 2007, had to go online and like all of Ireland, the streets went quiet.
“It’s been the strangest, toughest year in anyone’s living memory and we’re still not out of it yet, but the show must go on. We had to ask ourselves what we can do to keep musicians and artist going. Not to mention to bring a bit of life back to the streets, “
Joseph O’Leary, Ballydehob Jazz Festival Director.
