Down With Jazz 2013
by Ian Patterson
Down With JazzMeeting House SquareDublin, IrelandSeptember 6-8, 2013 Father Conefrey must be turning in his grave.

The Geordie Approach: Inatween
by Ian Patterson
At the risk of pigeonholing The Geordie Approach's music, there's really nothing like a little Noise/skronk/experimental electro/free jazz/pounding post-rock to shake off the cobwebs. The trio's debut album, Why Eye (Bruce's Fingers, 2007) will have deterred the faint hearted with its intense free improvisations, and equally, sucked in more adventurous listeners into the all-enveloping spiral of ...
