An Evening of Irish Music with Matt & Shannon Heaton

Experience the beauty of the Irish as Matt and Shannon Heaton perform traditional and updated Celtic music with voices, Irish flute, accordion, guitar and bouzouki at The Community House on Saturday, March 14 @ 7:30pm.

The Heatons’ music comes from a traditional aesthetic, a devotion to strong traditional bones, and a passion for reaching out to the modern world around them. They are devoted to Irish traditional music and uplift listeners by connecting with each other and the people around them.

“Their duet playing is tight, sweet, and tasteful, lacking nothing on either technical expertise or instrumental virtuosity.” John O’Regan, Irish Music Magazine

“Their playing is masterful and inventive, their arrangements city-smart and spacious. Still, they never forget that Irish music is, at its heart, a neighborly form meant for sharing, not showing off.” Scott Alarik, Boston Globe

“Brilliant, American-bred Irish folk” Daniel Gewertz, Boston Herald

Music that comes from the heart and from the wellspring of their collective talent...their bright take and Shannon’s warm voice breathe freshness into each [song]” Rob Wier, Sing Out

Shannon co-founded Boston’s Celtic Music Fest and teaches for Boston’s Comhaltas. Matt is highly sought after as an accompanist and has performed with traditional luminaries Aoife Clancy, Robbie O’Connell, Emily Smith, and the Boys of the Lough.
