Live At Dolans

Sharon Shannon and her Big Band bring the party to Dolans with their latest live album, a rip-roaring showcase of traditional Irish tunes and infectious energy. From the moment Shannon steps on stage, it's clear that she's not just a musician, she's a force of nature. With her accordion in hand, she effortlessly blends genres, weaving together folk, rock, and even a hint of jazz into a musical tapestry that is uniquely her own. The Big Band behind her is a well-oiled machine, providing a solid foundation for Shannon to work her magic. From the driving rhythms of the drums to the soaring melodies of the fiddle, each member of the band adds their own flavour to the mix. Together, they create a sound that is both familiar and fresh, paying homage to tradition while pushing the boundaries of what Irish music can be. Highlights include the foot-stomping "Blackbird," the haunting "The Galway Girl," and the rollicking "Cavan Potholes." Each track is a joyful celebration of life, love, and the power of music to bring people together. By the end of the album, you'll be on your feet, clapping and singing along with the crowd, swept up in the infectious energy of Shannon and her Big Band. Trust us, this is one live album you won't want to miss.
