“I do I Diddley Doo!!”

Fresh from releasing her brand new album, Now!, Ireland’s greatest traditional music export Sharon Shannon will headline the closing night of the Galway Folk Festival on Sunday, June 9th at 7pm. Following the success of her song ‘The Diddley Doo’ in collaboration with The Scratch, which she recently performed live on the Late Late Show, Sharon is back with a host of freewheeling songs full of stomping tunes and heart-warming, emotional and poignant ballads.

“I’m really looking forward to playing at the Galway Folk Festival,” she says.

“I will have two of the most versatile musicians in the whole country with me, both of them superstars in their own right, with Gerry Banjo O’Connor on banjo, fiddle and mandolin and Alan Connor on piano, electric guitar, vocals and percussion. It will be a mix of new music and the old favourites that people love to hear.” Find out more here !
