Next Experiment at The Cooler
Doors 7:30pm/Music 8:00pm "A fine pianist, Osio is also the group's sole composer... the music growing organically from balladic terrain to pastures altogether grander in design." - All About Jazz
Following a critically acclaimed album launch at Bray Jazz, pianist Leopoldo Osio brings the successor to the acclaimed CEO Experiment to The Cooler. CEO Experiment, co-led by Osio provided a welcome new voice to the Irish scene for over a decade. With its successor, Osio has assembled here an ensemble of players from across the globe – Italian saxophonist Gianni Gagliardi, Spanish drummer Gonzalo Del Val, his long-time collaborator Peter Erdei from Hungary on bass, and virtuosic Cork based trombonist Paul Dunlea in this great new group.
‘Next Experiment’ offer a funky mix of infectious Latin American grooves, jazz, and cool and rhythms.
“One of the most naturally gifted musicians to relocate to Ireland in recent years” - The Irish Times on Leopoldo Osio

Additional Information
The Cooler The Cooler is upstairs at The Complex Arts Centre, in the heart of Dublin 7. The Cooler is accessed via the Mary's Abbey door of The Complex (just off the LUAS tracks), NOT the Arran St East entrance to The Gallery. You can find the red wall which features ‘The Complex’ sign in large white letters, and The Cooler is accessed by the small blue door or the glass door on the blue wall.
During the day, the footpath and paving in front of The Complex can often be filled with fruit and vegetables from our neighbouring businesses - you can still access the Cooler at these times, don’t let the carrots be a barrier!
On Google Maps, search for The Cooler or The Depot at The Complex (the main performance space downstairs at The Complex). On Google Maps, the address for The Complex generally will bring you to the gallery on Arran St East.
The red line of the LUAS runs very close to The Cooler, taking the stop at Jervis St or at Four Courts. There is no customer parking available at The Complex. A small gated Dublin City Council car park can be accessed on Marys' Lane, around the corner at standard rates. Jervis Shopping Centre Car Park is also close by. Some street parking is available nearby - days and rates vary, please check signs.
For performances, The Cooler bar is open at door time (usually 30 minutes before the start of the performance), and during intervals. To make finding a seat and getting your drink a comfortable experience, please ensure you have enough time before the music starts!
