Info
On January 28, 2027, at O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London, Sharon Shannon brings her Big Band format to the stage, built around the punchy, dance-first energy that made her a key figure of modern Irish traditional music. A button accordion player at heart (but never stuck in one lane), she’s known for pushing jigs and reels into wider territory, folding in folk grooves and offbeat rhythmic twists without losing that straight-to-the-feet drive. Expect a set that moves fast, leaves room for tight ensemble interplay, and treats tradition as a living thing: sharp melodies, lively pulse, and plenty of space for the band to stretch the tunes.
This Big Band night also welcomes special guests that fit her collaborative spirit, including Camille O’Sullivan. Known for her theatrical, cabaret-leaning intensity and her bold way with reinterpretations, she adds a darker, dramatic edge to the line-up, bridging chanson, baroque pop and alternative rock in a voice-led performance style. Alongside other guests announced for the show, it shapes up as a one-off meeting point between Irish roots and stagecraft-heavy song storytelling.
