SHARON SHANNON, GALWAY, SEPTEMBER 2011

Another accomplished performance by Sharon Shannon and band at the 'Michael D Higgins for president' fund raising event, held at Monroe's Galway, on Friday, September 23rd, 2011.

Sharon and band travelled to Galway, after playing a gig elsewhere earlier in the evening, and delivered a top class, late night set of music to those present. It was an impressive marathon night of music (over 7 hours), with many fine musicians there to perform and support Irish presidential candidate, Michael D. Higgins.

From Sharon's website: Sharon has recorded and toured with....Bono, Adam Clayton, Sinead O'Connor, Jackson Browne, John Prine, Steve Earl, Mark Knopfler, The Chieftains, The Waterboys, Willie Nelson, Nigel Kennedy, Alison Krauss, and Shane Mc Govern...
