The Alternative Sunday Social Club Presents in The Wild Duck on Sunday, September 18th at 4.00pm
Jazzabelles
Fresh from headlining the 2022 MusicTown Festival, supporting Jerry Fish in Tallaght Stadium, and performing in Marley Park and the Aras Chronain Cultural Centre, Jazzabelles are fast making their mark on the Irish live jazz music scene! An all ‘female led’ band, they want their profile to make a difference and encourage more female artists to take part in jam sessions, festivals and live events. Introducing jazz to a wider audience is one of the paramount goals in their endeavour. Jazzabelles pride themselves on playing standards with a fresh sensitive and collaborative approach so listeners can recognise and relate to the music instantly!
Their extensive and ever-expanding repertoire is a reflection of all our members’ different styles and tastes. Jazzabelles musicians hail from six different countries in total: France, Germany, Ireland, Kuwait, Latvia and Poland. The very core fabric of the band is a reflection on how cosmopolitan Ireland has become in recent times. As a country we are privileged to have a wide variety of musicians and artists from so many different cultures, who contribute to a growing and vibrant creative musical scene!

About the Alternative Sunday Social Club:
The Alternative Sunday Social Club was created so that music fans can enjoy some top tunes on the last afternoon of the weekend. Since we launched at the beginning of 2015, we’ve hosted gigs by Rocky DeValera (front man of legendry Dublin bands The Gravediggers and The Rhythm Kings), The Dubtones, Blood or Whiskey, JC Carroll (The Members), The Business, Brush Shield’s Skid Row, Trouble Pilgrims (formerly The Radiators from Space), The Lee Harveys, Eileen Gogan and the Instructions, The Winters, The Hacklers, TV Smith (The Adverts), Strand, The Unelectables, Vulpynes and The Outcasts. We’ve had music from right across the spectrum with rock, guitar pop, punk, Americana, blues and ska and we’ve grown our crowd by word of mouth with all ages dropping by on Sunday afternoons. For the band they get the kick of their early live shows, and the audience gets to enjoy the music and the musician up-close and personal. It’s cheap, cheerful and above all fun for everybody who comes along. This isn’t 1000s of people in a converted warehouse; this is dozens of people enjoying music the way it was meant to be seen and heard.
