197/365 - Sharon Moroney, Hibernacle, Orlagh House, Dublin.

Dublin

14 Jul

Well, if ever there was a person to say “music is life” it’s Sharon. She has lived what some would consider a “normal life”. Faced with very little job opportunities when she left school in the 80s, she took whatever job was going and was quite content with that. She built a home, raised her kids, but when she was secure and happy, it was time to rediscover her love of music.

She once considered herself to be a shy person, but since throwing herself into music, she’s anything but. Sharon now goes to sean nós singing workshops, folk music gatherings, and has sung in choirs to 40,000 people.
