April 8 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm
Join us and discover Jamie Duffy in Paris, 24-year-old pianist and composer from Glaslough, County Monaghan, who has rapidly become one of Ireland’s most significant musical exports. His success is defined by a unique “neo-traditional” style—a blend of Irish folk, classical arrangements, and modern cinematic soundscapes.
