Green Room Jazz – Estratos

Drummer and composer Diego Joaquin Ramirez brings his sonically adventurous trio Estratos to the Cork Jazz Festival 2025, sharing the stage with his brother, acclaimed multi-instrumentalist and producer Sanche Ramirez (Cork IE/Philadelphia USA), and virtuoso keyboardist and arranger Matt Wong (San Francisco USA). Estratos draws inspiration from the sounds & sights of Diego’s childhood in Cork, Ireland, as well as from his family’s deep ties to Native American and Latin American culture.

Influences from traditional Native American percussion, the 2000s math rock scene in Ireland, and the jazz and ambient electronica scene of Diego’s current home in NYC are woven through the fabric of this latest project, resulting in a body of work that’s both deeply personal and brightly inventive. Diego has become a go-to collaborator both in and outside the Jazz world, performing with artists like Carrtoons, Kiefer, Melanie Charles, Wayne Tucker, Marc Cary, and Circuit Kisser, at venues and platforms such as NPR Tiny Desk, The Blue Note, and Newport Jazz Festival.
