Shanneyganock was showcasing their talent at Folk Alliance in Memphis on the second anniversary of the death of Newfoundland musician, Dermot O'Reilly. As a tribute, they performed one of his songs.
They were at Folk Alliance in Memphis to get better known to US festival presenters.
The next week, they were back in Nfld at Corner Brook for the 2009 ECMA awards. They are now back in St. John's and doing shows at the Arts & Culture Centres in support of their new album.
Oh, I was hoping they'd come to Memphis, it's the closest they've been to us here in Washington... not that I can blame them for sticking to Newfoundland. I was just thinking they might come down and have a US tour near major centres of Newfoundlanders
Do you know if they're going back?

I'm not sure I understand the question.

They'll be in Maine this September.
Next summer they hope to be doing several summer festivals in the U.S.
