* Folk Fiesta (Poland).



Shannon have also taken part in celebrations of the Interceltique Festival du Lorient in Britany (France) as well as often performing in Denmark and Germany.

Shannon on occasion have also played with other famous musicians, one of them being Polish jazz violinist - Michal Urbaniak.

Thanks to a mix of traditional sounds and modern composition,
they offer a great sound.
The appreciation of Shannons music can be seen through its appeal to a wide audience from the hardcore Irish music lover through to the novice.

The music Shannon performs will delight all, not only the audience seeking Irish sounds and you will be left endeared to the band through the energy and passion with which they play their music.

Look out in a live performance to the bands techniques in playing different instruments to perfection.
