How much do you know about Jeff Goldblum?

HOLLYWOOD STAR JEFF Goldblum is playing a jazz gig in the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre next weekend. 

Better known for his acting, with performances in blockbuster hits like Jurassic Park, Independence Day and more recently Wicked, Goldblum is on tour ahead of the release of a new album.

The billing for the show says Goldblum adds “his unique vocals on a few tracks on this forthcoming album, alongside a dazzling line up of collaborators”, including Cynthia Erivo, Melody Gardot, Ariana Grande and Scarlett Johansson.

The concert takes place on 30 May and tickets (starting at €69) are available on Ticketmaster.
