Acapella female trio The Shannon Colleens bring their own
particular earthy brand of harmonies to some of James Joyce’s best-
loved popular songs - from bawdy street ballads and sea shanties to
music hall hits and folksongs.
Encompassing the cheeky Seaside Girls to the nostalgic Love’s Old
Sweet Song; the irreverence of The Ballad of Joking Jesus to the
pertinence of The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo; the
beauty of Michael Balfe’s I Dreamt That I Dwelt in Marble Halls to the
haunting melody of Thomas Moore’s Oft in the Stilly Night.
Step into the sounds and times of early 20th century Dublin -
Joyce’s Dublin. Join us for this musical evocation of an era, complete
with a tasty bowl of soup.
“The Shannon Colleens have been a hit wherever they’ve
performed, with their mix of self-composed sharp, ironic songs and
their treatment of folk and traditional numbers.”
