Description (for website)

Acclaimed vocalist and composer Laoise Leahy presents Breathe In & Let Go, a  special summer afternoon concert performed with master pianist Johnny Taylor in the intimate Cobblestone venue 
A native of Cork and a contemporary voice lecturer at MTU Cork School of Music,  Laoise is known for her rich, soulful tone and her instinctive, fearless approach to  improvisation. Her music moves fluidly between jazz, soul, folk and contemporary  sound worlds, guided by a deep curiosity about connection, presence and what it  means to be human. 
For this performance, she is joined by her longtime collaborator Johnny Taylor on piano, bringing an intuitive musical chemistry and a shared sensitivity to space, texture and groove. 
The music for this concert draws from her recently released EP ‘Breathe In & Let  Go’ alongside reimagined, revered jazz tunes, newly composed songs and open  improvisations. Inspired by breath, nature, time and the inner rhythms of life, the  set unfolds gently - at times grounded and earthy, at others expansive, soaring and  
searching - always leaving room in the moment for the unexpected. 
Breathe In & Let Go is an invitation to pause in the middle of the day, to listen  deeply, to soften and allow the music to carry you for a while. Intimate, reflective  and quietly powerful, this lunchtime concert offers a nourishing and transporting  moment shared in one of Dublin’s most cherished live music spaces. 
“Laoise Leahy’s must-hear ambient-jazz EP, ‘Breathe In & Let Go‘ is fuelled by intelligent arrangements, stunning performances and magnetic melodies. One thing is for sure, ‘Breathe In & Let Go‘ is a contemporary jazz EP that will stand the test of time….”

“Great Jazz Voice on Blue” 
Carl Corcoran - Lyric FM (Blue of the Night) 
“It may be some of the finest work by an Irish jazz artist in the last ten years. She is going to blow the scene out of the water...”
