Moving On Music are delighted to welcome back Dave Kelbie with his new project, ‘The Viper Club’.

“He was the wittiest of all the great American pop composers.” 

– Washington Post on Cole Porter

One of the 20th Century’s songwriting geniuses, Cole Porter was the toast of Broadway and Hollywood. Composer of the hit musicals Anything Goes, Kiss Me, Kate, Can-Can, Silk Stockings and High Society, he epitomised the wit, charm, elegance and sophistication of an era. Following a sold out performance a Dublin’s National Concert Hall, singer Stella Bass and pianist Niall Kinsella invite you to sit back and revel in an afternoon of song that’s guaranteed to be de-lightful, de-licious, de-lovely!

Join us for an evening of live jazz led by drummer John Philip Murray, bringing together four outstanding musicians in an evening of richly connected jazz.

Murray’s approach to the drums is rooted in flow, space, and strong time. Known for his musical sensitivity and deep understanding of ensemble playing, he leads the group from the kit, shaping the feel and direction of each tune. His playing supports and challenges in equal measure, creating a strong foundation for interaction and improvisation.

The performance will feature music g material from their latest album - Interfuse

Jazz Views review of Interface: “The result is an album of great variety with quality to match. Donegan is a fine composer, bringing highly accessible compositions with strong melodies and depth to sustain interest. You soon warm to the material, which has a relaxed and uplifting tone, then stick around for the textural interplay between four imaginative players who clearly enjoy each other’s company.
