Mulcahy McGrath Jazz Guitar Duo and Paul Dunlea

Ahead of the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival which starts on Thursday 24th, Cork's newest Jazz Guitar Duo, Mulcahy-McGrath came in to studio to play and chat to Elmarie. John McGrath and Tom Mulcahy are just superb and renowned musicians across a wide variety of ensembles, but this is their first time setting out together as a Duo. And we were thrilled to have Paul Dunlea live in studio as well! Not only did one of Cork's most acclaimed international musicians come in to chat, he had some great details on some Green Room shows for the Jazz in Cork Opera House, and he brought his trombone to jam with the lads as well. Sublime.
