Ariel Posen & Band tonight with guest Jordan Run(solo)
9pm. €17
Singer/songwriter. Internationally-renowned guitarist. Producer. Solo artist.
A lifelong musician, there are few roles Ariel Posen hasn't played.
Although born in Winnipeg, Posen spent much of his childhood on the road, traveling from show to show with his musician parents. He began playing guitar at 9 years old, kicking off a career that eventually found him traveling the globe for his own gigs, including shows as a member of the Juno Award winning, roots-rock band The Bros. Landreth. Several years later, Posen began working on an album of his own, tracking his new songs in the same studio in which his parents once recorded their albums.
How Long marks Posen's long-awaited solo debut, showcasing not only his chops as an instrumentalist, but his talents as a diverse songwriter, too. The record casts a wide net, moving from rootsy blues to R&B to melodic rock & roll. A co-writer and producer for artists of all genres, Posen shows the full range of his talents on these 10 tracks, nodding to his influences - including The Beatles, Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Mayer and more - along the way. How Long is not a guitar record, although there's certainly plenty of guitar to be heard here. Instead, it's a song record, filled with hooks, autobiographical lyrics, and Posen's compelling voice.
"The guitar is the tool to get the music out," he says. "Always serve the song first. Otherwise, you're just playing an instrument."
Tonight - Beyond the Wash 'Murmurings' EP Launch with guest Sara Ryan. Doors 9pm. Tickets €12 from www.coughlans.ie/whats-on
Beyond the Wash (BTW) is Patrick O'Donnell, an Irish multi-instrumentalist and seasoned songwriter originally from the south-east of Ireland, based in Cork. Formed in early 2019, BTW has been producing content with what seems like a fire at his feet within the last year and has impressed audiences with a string of artistic video performances and support slots to established original artists, such as In the Willows, Tiz McNamara and Míde Houlihan.
Working as part of the Unemployable Promotions Roster, the end of this year is looking very exciting for BTW with a headline tour and the release of a long overdue, EP, titled 'Murmurings'. It features four songs, each one loosely based around a season. The lead single, 'Dusktime' brings the fire that was promised with energy and poise. Most importantly, the EP features collaborations with some of Cork's finest creatives in photography, dance, film, design and music.
Having spent some time refining his sound and developing his craft, BTW is an artist with a compelling vision and if initial reviews are anything to go by, this project is one to watch.
