Today on my blog I would like to talk a bit about Sharon Shannon, I have played accordion for a very long time and never have I seen or heard anyone play accordion like Sharon Shannon. Just listening to her play the button accordion is a treat, I know how hard it is to play jigs and reels and she plays them so smoothly she is one incredible entertainer. Here is a sample of Sharon Shannon's accordion playing.
