Edel Meade's Swoo-Beh

An impressive new cohort of singers are making their presence felt in Irish jazz, among them recent Newpark graduate Edel Meade, making her Pendulum debut. The voice is bright and expressive, and comfortable in different contexts from traditional jazz forms to open improv, and also songwriters like Joni Mitchell and Jill Scott. Swoo-Beh features other musicians you’ll hear a lot more from in the years ahead with guitarist Chris Guilfoyle, pianist Leopoldo Osio, bassist Andrew Csibi and drummer Tommy Gray.
