After 20 of her own albums, countless DVDS, filmed concerts, musical collaborations and a career that has spanned 40 years, we are beyond excited to be joined by Irish national treasure Sharon Shannon!
The genre-defying star has achieved multi-platinum album sales and several chart topping albums, singles and DVDs in her home country. Her album Galway Girl went 4 times platinum in Ireland with the title track winning her the Meteor award two years running for the most downloaded song. She also celebrates being the youngest ever recipient of the Meteor Lifetime Achievement Award.
And still she is breaking new musical ground as she introduces her “Big Band” project to Pairc Summer Series. What started as a heartfelt tribute to the Pogues’ late Shane MacGowan has now become a global touring live act; an Irish supergroup featuring Liam Ó Moanlai, Mundy, Cait O’Riordan, Camille O’Sullivan and Sharon Shannon herself!
