Tommy Halferty Organ Trio

Its such a good idea, it’s a wonder it didn’t happen sooner. The evergreen Halferty is from Derry, that most musical of Irish cities and since the late 70s, he's been an irrepressible voice, always lyrical and animated, and a formative influence for many Irish jazz musicians. Among them are drummer Conor Guilfoyle, who joins the spirited improviser here for a programme of Halferty originals and music associated with the organ trio canon from artists like Larry Young. Justin Carroll is Ireland’s finest exponent of the arcane art of the Hammond and will be a properly funky foil for Halferty's passionate and agile guitar style.
