About the Artist: SIONAINN LAOI
Sionainn Laoi is a compelling Irish traditional music duo from southeast Michigan, featuring Hannah Harris on fiddle and voice, and Alberto (Bear) Whitmer on guitar and bodhrán. Their name reflects their formative musical experiences in Ireland —Harris studied at University College Cork along the River Lee, while Whitmer honed his skills at the University of Limerick across the River Shannon.

They connected at The Ark’s Gavin Family Crossroads Ceili and local sessions in Plymouth and Ann Arbor, realizing their styles and influences meshed perfectly. Harris’ fiddle playing, both lyrical and driving, echoes the styles of Matt Cranitch and Liz Carroll, while Whitmer’s sensitive yet lifting guitar work draws inspiration from Tony McManus and John Doyle. Together, they create a rich, authentic sound that captures the essence of Irish traditional music.
