The Sharon Shannon Big Band

The Sharon Shannon Big Band, accompanied by an illustrious lineup of special guests including  Imelda May, Liam Ó Maonlaí ,Camille O’ Sullivan and Mundy  is set to deliver a captivating tribute to the late Shane MacGowan .

 

This homage holds profound significance, as Shane previously toured with the Big Band, leaving an indelible mark on their musical journey. Shane was a fiesta in himself, a spirit especially evident during his magnificent 60th birthday celebration at The National Concert Hall. 

 

Sharon Shannon shares, “I miss Shane dearly and I’m truly honored to have been friends with him and to have played and toured with him. I was one of the lucky people who attended Shane’s 60th birthday concert in the National Concert Hall. A star-filled band and crowd gathered together to celebrate Shane and perform their favourite Shane songs. Tickets, predictably, were sold out in the blink of an eye. I was daydreaming at the time about how exciting and lovely it would be to do shows like this with Shane for Shane’s fans all around Ireland.  

 

Sadly, we lost Shane but with full blessings from Shane’s sister Siobhán and his widow Victoria, we are putting this tribute together now. So come and join us with this ‘dream come true’ lineup of brilliant musicians and singers to celebrate our incredible friend and legend, 

Shane MacGowan.”
