Bio / Background
BLUE JAR
“Blue Jar combines the panache of Grappelli with Gypsy flamboyance, yet balances this passion with a dreamy, atmospheric classical sound”. The group has played throughout Europe and Africa and continue to play in festivals throughout England and Ireland. With ‘Ducks and Geese’ to their credit, their second album “Pelican Crossing” is on general release.
The members of Blue Jar come from a mix of backgrounds. After over twenty years each on the music circuit, they have combined their specialties, arrange, compose and entertain. Since their first gig-a Garden Party for H.R.H The Prince of Wales they have specialised in corporate work - They are now ‘doing’ the live gig and festival circuit, following the success of their album, and recent festival performances at the Cork Jazz Festival, Bray Jazz Festival, Enniskillen Arts Festival, Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival, and Balbriggan Arts Festival.

I Saw You Standing Aloneanakelea wrote on April 11, 2009
That was you, wasn't it? Outside the club, under the second full moon of the month, having bribed the accordion player to venture away from the stage with your low cut, see-through dress. Tempting the drizzle, under the streetlight. The night was so French. You, you looked so Chinese despite your cigarette holder and black patent leather gloves. Waiting for the end of the world.
