Joy Shannon and the Beauty Marks is the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist Joy Shannon who composes on Celtic harp, cello, accordion, guitar and vocals. Her sound is completed by "the Beauty Marks" who consist of Sean Wallace on guitar, Andy Zacharias on bass, Graham Spillman and Axel Clarke on drums.
Joy's music has been described as "mesmerizing" and "ethereal, powerful and moving... She's a must listen artist whose unique application of the Celtic Harp and hard-rocking band makes her truly one of a kind". (M. Cleveland)Band/artist history
