Matt and Shannon Heaton with Bairbre McCarthy
Caffe Lena
Saratoga Springs, NY
Matt & Shannon Heaton's original Celtic music is built on strong traditional bones, fleshed out with a deep engagement with the modern world around them. They learned their chops in Irish music sessions in Chicago and on regular trips to Ireland, where they studied with some of Clare's finest. But once you scratch the traditional pedigree you find a unique vibe.
Shannon contributes a keen love of language and folk melody accrued through a childhood spent on Navajo Reservations and in Nigeria and Thailand. Matt is a life long music student who has played classical guitar in Italy, rock in Chicago, and tango in Denver.
Matt and Shannon have invited local Irish storyteller, author, and teacher Bairbre McCarthy, to lend a few of her tales to the night. Bairbre grew up in a large family in County Clare on the west coast of Ireland. She is treasured around the Capital District and far beyond for her fast-paced, highly animated and fun telling of Irish legends.
