'Down With Jazz' takes place in Dublin this weekend

Saturday May 30 and Sunday May 31 sees 'Down With Jazz' taking over Meeting House Square in Temple Bar, Dublin. Harking back to '30s Ireland when jazz and ‘foreign’ music was seen by the Catholic Church and Gaelic League as a filthy force of corruption, it will be an inclusive celebration of those musical rebels featuring 10 jazz, world and experimental acts.
