Musical bill rich in Irish talents
SATURDAY, August 23 will see one of the most exciting and engaging line-ups to ever perform at the Dome take to the stage, with the legendary Sharon Shannon as the main attraction.
One of Ireland’s best loved traditional musicians, Sharon Shannon is known across the globe for her magical ability and talents and the County Clare native, with her ‘Big Band’ are set to rock the Dome in one of the most eagerly anticipated musical events to hit Kerry this year.
Having sold millions of albums across the world, Sharon comes to Tralee hot on the heels of her success in the charts with Mundy on the number one hit ‘Galway Girl’.
Sharon isn’t the only legend that will grace the stage on the Dome that night, she will be also joined by none other than the infamous Shane McGowan, another singer who has gained notoriety for his talents all over the world, as lead singer of The Pogues and as a talented singer/songwriter in his own right.
A national treasure, Galway singer Dessie O’Halloran will also perform on the night. A contemporary talent, Declan O’Rourke is also Dome bound, bringing with him his own unique brand of music.
Declan O’Rourke used to be one of Ireland’s best kept secrets, but rave reviews for his debut double platinum album, ‘Since Kyabram’, a growing international fan base and an enviable collection of eminent devotees, including Paul Weller and Snow Patrol, are rapidly changing that.
The line-up is completed with Jon Kenny, one of Ireland’s most enduring comedic talents, who is sure to have the masses rolling in the aisles. Sharon Shannon and her Big Band will perform in the Dome at Fel’s Point, on Saturday August 23, and will be joined on the night by Shane MacGowan, Dessie O’Halloran and Jon Kenny.
Tickets are on sale now at the Rose of Tralee Festival office for only €36. Those interested in attending are advised to secure their ticket as soon as possible as they are going fast.
