JOACHIM COODER WITH ADRIANO VITERBINI AT CONNOLLYS

Friday 6th November 2026
🎟 Tickets available now - https://www.ticketsource.com/oldflattopir/joachim-cooder-with-adriano-viterbini/2026-11-06/20:00/t-pllnqap

We're really looking forward to welcoming Joachim Cooder and Adriano Viterbini to Connollys this November.

Joachim has been surrounded by extraordinary music from an early age. The son of legendary guitarist Ry Cooder, he was part of the original Buena Vista Social Club recording sessions and has worked alongside musicians including Ali Farka Touré, Mavis Staples and Dr. John.

Over the years, he's developed a sound very much his own, with the electric mbira at its heart.. an instrument rooted in African musical traditions that gives his music its distinctive warmth and rhythm.

Joining him is Italian guitarist Adriano Viterbini, known for his work with Bud Spencer Blues Explosion and I Hate My Village. His playing draws on blues, psychedelia, folk and African musical influences.

Together, the two explore the connections between these different musical worlds, bringing together guitars, electric mbira and a wonderfully open approach to making music.

A lovely pairing of two musicians who have spent years following their curiosity and finding their own way through music.

Doors 7pm | Show 8pm - Indoors
