Shannon Hurley's Bio

Recently named one of Rolling Stone's top 25 artists on MySpace, Shannon Hurley is an up and coming singer-songwriter with music on the edge of pop, folk, and rock. Her style is reminiscent of Sarah McLachlan and Aimee Mann.

This Indiana-born musician has been playing music all her life, being brought up in a family of singers. Picking up piano at age 8, she then moved on to trombone. She graduated with a music degree from University of Colorado at Boulder, where she became the stage manager for Fox Theatre. After working with Julian Lennon, Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt, and Rufus Wainright, she became enamored with songwriting. She studied with Pat Leonard (hit songwriter for Madonna) and moved to Los Angeles is 2001.

Shannon is a sought-after session musician and spent 2005 touring with Universal Motown artist Brie Larson. This has given her the opportunity to open for Jesse McCartney, Gwen Stefani, The Black-Eyed Peas, and Gavin DeGraw. Currently she is playing keyboards for international artist Marina V. In addition to these accomplishments, she is also co-founder for "Don't Call Us Tori!" (www.dontcallustori.com), a showcase for quality women singer-songwriters. These shows are held in L.A. venues such as the Hotel Cafe, Knitting Factory, and Genghis Cohen Shannon is endorsed by YAMAHA. Her full-length debut. "Ready to Wake Up", is out now.
