Irish musicians often joke about finding the elusive lilt in their playing -- that special something that makes a tune sound truly Irish. Hannah will be the first to tell you that this lilt can always be developed further, but there is no question that she has found it in both her fiddling and singing. 

While she has only called Michigan home since 2017, Harris has quickly made a name for herself in the Irish traditional music community both locally and further afield. She holds a Masters Degree in Ethnomusicology from University College of Cork, where she spent a year immersing herself in the music scene of Cork City, Ireland.

Harris focuses primarily on her online studio, and also enjoys teaching at live events as opportunities arise (past and present including Summer Wheat, Evart FunFest, Tune Junkie Weekend, Michigan Celtic Fest + QuaranTUNES).

Harris has two solo albums to her name: At the Core (2025) and Tea for Tunes (2020), both of which have been featured in Irish Music Magazine, and received international acclaim.

Her current projects include the Shannon Lee duo with her partner Alberto Whitmer, the Talbot Trio (Jack Hughes, Jim Lindroth) and collaborations with Randy Clepper and Bella Issakova.

Hannah is no stranger to the Irish music scene: you'll regularly find her leading traditional Irish music sessions alongside the renowned Gavin family in Ann Arbor and Plymouth, teaching or performing at live festivals and workshops, or sharing everything she knows about fiddling with her online students and audience.
