David Irwin

Sunset Lounge

This is my hip, cabaret, Vegas, late night jazzy group. It's an ever changing line-up of fine musicians. We perform at the Cork Jazz Festival every year, in between festivals and other events. Some instrumental tunes are featured on MySpace, though we mostly play songs in the style of Sinatra, Connick, Cole, and Buble.


Early Solo Albums

These were recorded for two CD releases in the late 1990's. I received considerable airplay on MP3.com around the millennium, garnering a few number one slots -- this doesn't translate to fame and fortune! Now hosted by Beta Records. Let me know if you enjoy these tracks.


Van Heusen Trio

If you need classy music for any kind of reception from guys in tuxedos, look no further!

Blue Valentine

A Tom Waits tribute night focusing exclusively on his early years. Usually a four-piece band with male and female singers, sometimes a couple of slightly burlesque candy girls!


Theatre

My work in orchestras for musical theatre productions includes (amongst others): Back To The 80s, Disco Inferno, Our House, Footloose, Tops Odyssey, The Wiz, Killer Kabaret, Two Gentlemen of Lebowski, Rose of Tralee, and compositions for LYT.

Experimental Works

Some unusual sound experiments using collage and fractal techniques, featured in Tweak, Mamuska, etc.
