Cooks But We’re Chefs & Rachael Mae Hannon @ Guinness Cork Jazz Festival
October 25 @ 7:30 pm - 10:30 pm
Cooks But We’re Chefs are a 7 piece band from Dublin. Their sound encapsulates elements of house, funk, jazz, soul and hip-hop. Their highly energetic show has been well received
across Ireland and the UK festival circuits with slots Electric Picnic, Body & Soul,
Bray Jazz Festival, Latitude, Stendhal and main stage slots at Forbidden Fruit and Life Festival. Further sold out headline shows in
Dublin’s Grand Social and Lost Lane and also Limerick’s Prima Volta have cemented Cooks as a fundamental live act to the Irish music scene.
Rachael Mae Hannon
Rachel Mae Hannon is a soulful vocalist, a multi-instrumentalist, a songwriter and producer from Monaghan but living in Dublin. Her sound has been described as where pop meets neo-soul. The low range of her vocals and her eloquent use of harmonies gives her a distinctive soul pop sound.
The last year has been an exciting one for Rachel as she has not only supported HAIM at the Trinity Summer Series, Tom Odell in The 3Olympia, and Eloise in The Sugar Club, she has also played the main stages of festivals such as Sea Sessions, Kaleidoscope, Indiependence and We’ve Only Just Begun, Electric Picnic and New Year’s Festival Dublin.
Rachel dueted with Danny O’Reilly from The Coronas as part of RTÉ’s The Main Stage, ‘Unseen Songs’ and performed on RTÉ One’s New Year’s Eve Show hosted by Jenifer Zamperelli who suggested Rachel as being ‘tipped for international stardom’ in 2023.’
MCD promoted Rachel Mae Hannon’s sold out headline gig on the 1st October in Workman’s. Her latest video ‘Work It Out’ was released last May, and her latest single ‘Breathe’ is available on all streaming platforms now. With her first gig of 2023 completed at Workman’s for the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre’s celebration of Nollaig na mBan, Rachel also has many future gigs and music releases set in motion for 2023. No doubt, this year is set to be an exciting one for Rachel.
