Tá Sharon Howley, dordveidhleadóir ó Chill Fhionnúrach, Co. an Chláir, aitheanta mar cheoltóir iomráiteach i gceol traidisiúnta na hÉireann. Is il-cheoltóir í ó bhí sí an-óg, agus tá sí i mbarr a maitheasa mar ealaíontóir, mar chóiritheoir, mar chumadóir agus mar mhúinteoir. Oibríonn sí lena lán eagraíochtaí agus tograí éagsúla, agus sheinn sí ar iliomad dlúthdhioscaí a chlúdaíonn raon leathan stíleanna ceoil. Is ball í den bhanna clúiteach céilí Kilfenora rud a dhaingníonn a díograis agus a scil sa cheol traidisiúnta.
