Cork Jazz Festival review: Gregory Porter's sweet songs charm a packed Opera House 

Gregory Porter is the big draw at Guinness Cork Jazz Festival 2024, and he lived up to his billing at the first of his two gigs on Leeside

Gregory Porter, Cork Opera House, Guinness Cork Jazz Festival ★★★★☆

 It was raining heavily outside but inside Cork Opera House on Thursday night, the crowd luxuriated in the warm and mellow vibes generated by Gregory Porter.
