Shane Brogan @ French Restaurant on Saturdays, Edinburgh – UKby Rob Howard |
Accordionist Shane Brogan is now resident at the Pierre Victoire Restaurant, 18 Eyre Place, Edinburgh EH3 5EP, on Saturdays. It’s live accordion music from 6.30pm until late. Shane Brogan comes from the west coast of Scotland, where he was born along with his twin brother Paul in 1971. His late father, Neil Brogan, who played the accordion, was a huge influence on Shane’s desire to learn the accordion, and he studied with Jim Hutcheon, from Ayr. Shane studied music at Napier University, Edinburgh, where he graduated with a diploma in music, specialising in the accordion, piano and composition. He was the very first accordionist ever to be accepted by the university. Shane went on to study jazz improvisation and also began writing music. For further information email: shanbrog@gmail.com |
