Shannon Dunne is a performer of extraordinary integrity and merit with many years of experience behind her and an ever-brightening future ahead.
Irish traditional music plays a paramount role in Shannon’s life as both a robust dancer and an unostentatious musician. Her studies on button accordion with famed box player Billy McComiskey and on concertina with Gearóid Ó hAllmhuráin and Alex Boatright have given her further knowledge about Ireland’s dance music, which fuels the spirit of sean-nós dancing. Living in South Bend, Shannon is devising and teaching courses in sean-nós dancing, tin whistle, and social dancing at the University of Notre Dame in the Department of Irish Language and Literature.
This interpretative dance form from western Co. Galway closely mimics the music, and the worth of a dancer like Shannon…
