Banshee is a collective of Irish women artists, once active in reality - performing at venues around New York and America's West Coast, now only virtually united by web - linked here are their original pages, with their respective current websites added.
Banshee performed extensively both as individuals and in collective performance evenings, in their respective genres of dance, fiction, song, poetry and drama. In New York, events in spaces such as Max Fish, Fez and The Knitting Factory, were done in conjunction with the Celtic Calendar, on the celebration days of Samhain, the Winter Solstice, Imbolg, Bealtaine, the Summer Solstice and Lughnasa. Among other events, BANSHEE hosted and headlined on the Performance Stage at the GUINNESS FLEADH (an Irish Lollapollooza) in New York and San Francisco. The collective was the subject of a documentary film by Laura Metzger, and was been featured on Irish National television, BBC television, European Satellite television and on radio programs in both the U.S. and Ireland. Since the turn of the millenium, with the real-location scattering of banshees to different parts of the globe, live performances have been put on hold, but the virtual bond survives.
