Insufficient Funs

Insufficient Funs are a drums and bass saxophone duo, borne out of Matthew Jacobson's recent Musician-in-Residence award. The rare use of bass saxophone provides seriously low tones for Sam Comerford to weave between grooving basslines, melodies and textures in conversation with Jacobson's playful drumming.

Collectively these two musicians have represented Ireland with the European Jazz Orchestra, the European Saxophone Ensemble, 12Points Festival and have performed and recorded together with several groups including A E R I E, Chris Guilfoyle's UMBRA and Ronan Guilfoyle's 'A Shy Going Boy'.

This is the group's debut EP, recorded at Dublin’s Hellfire Studios and they will be performing several dates around Europe this summer including 12 Points Festival in San Sebastian, Spain in July and Another Love Story Festival in Ireland in August.
