Description

We are so pleased to welcome famed Irish guitarist Shane Hennessy to McGuinness Irish Pub. Described by legendary guitarist and mentor Tommy Emmanuel as “a brilliant entertainer and an amazing musician who transcends the guitar the same way Muhammed Ali transcended boxing”, Shane has developed an unmistakably unique voice as a fingerstyle guitarist, blending his native Irish music with elements of jazz, country, blues, funk, classical, soul, world, and hip-hop, both vocally and instrumentally. His live shows are known for their energy and variety - anything from Bach to Beyoncé! Irish Music Magazine have called him “one of the most exciting live performers of his generation”, and attest to his “virtuosity and compositional excellence” (April 2020 edition)
