    Wondering if anyone knows about them, or saw them when they were a younger?

    Any information you have on them would be great.

    Nope, he's not that famous, but I know he and his band played in Dublin....I don't know exactly what years though.

    Had a quick look on the aaj player profiles but couldn't find him there. Sounds vaguely familiar though. Why are you looking for info on him may I ask?

    Ah I see, well I'm afraid I can't help you much on that. Do you when he played? It might be worth talking to some of the jazz musicians that might have played with him around that time. There's a lot of musicians who have been playing the dublin scene for decades, and some still playing in bands around the city. Maybe try some of them??

    Sorry to bump such an old thread I made, but I haven't been here for a while, and have found some images if it may help people:
