Orlando Molina Quintet Live at Billy Byrnes

Hailing from Venezuela and enriched by life’s experiences in different corners of the world, Orlando weaves a captivating musical narrative that mirrors his diverse artistic and personal journey. Through a harmonious fusion of Latin American roots with contemporary jazz and world music influences, his compositions resonate with the depth of his multicultural experiences.

As a multifaceted and versatile guitarist and composer, he takes listeners on an authentic voyage of discovery, embracing the profound beauty of cultural fusion and evoking emotional resonance with each composition.

Teaming up with Scott Flanigan (Piano), Matthew Jacobson (Drums), Cormac O’Brien (Double bass) and Steve Welsh (Saxophones), Orlando will present an enthralling repertoire of original compositions, carefully crafted for this quintet.

With an active career as a sideman, Orlando’s achievements include three international music scholarships and six Music Bursaries, including the Music Capital Scheme by Music Network (Ireland), solidifying his status as a highly accomplished musician. His collaborations and performances with renowned artists and Grammy Prize winners, as well as invitations to play for distinguished figures like President Michael D Higgins, Conor McGregor, Wynton Marsalis, David Bisbal, and Ruben Blades, further emphasize his global artistic significance.
