Strands - Inner Spaces

Stephen Shannon is a composer and music producer based in Dublin, Ireland, who has recorded and released music as a member of Halfset, Strands and the duo Mount Alaska (251 Records). Stephen’s Strands moniker was originally intended as a one-album project back in 2010, but in 2020, when lockdowns and travel restrictions were in place, Stephen had a chance to work alone for the first time in many years. An avid collector of vintage synthesisers and musical instruments, he made use of the studio equipment around him and began making a record. Steve compiled a list of places in Wicklow, where he grew up, that he really wanted to go back to post-lockdown.
