The Sharon Shannon Trio
A highly anticipated first time visit to Sunderland by one of Irish music’s best loved stars, Sharon Shannon with her trio.
Sharon Shannon is a musician who likes to surprise. While she is known for her arrangements of traditional Irish tunes and Irish-influenced compositions, she has always been eager to explore new styles, and to meet and work with other musicians. The accordionist from Ireland has achieved legendary status throughout the world and has made the much-maligned accordion ‘cool’ in her home country. Renowned for her collaborations, not just in traditional Irish music, but throughout all musical genres: hip-hop, Cajun, country, reggae, classical and rap.
