Tara Shannon Live in Concert

 

 

Country music recording artist, Tara Shannon, live in concert featuring Wade Foster and special guests Jeff Callery & Arlene Quinn ~ an evening of country music with a bit of folk and a whole lot of soul.

Shannon’s latest album, produced by Hayley McLean, is a fusion of country and contemporary sounds aimed to attract audiences to her sophisticated, soulful musicality. The title of the album originated from a decision Shannon made 20 years ago to put her recording career on hold for her family. After being discovered by Alanis Morissette’s parents, the songstress declined a record deal knowing the timing just wasn’t right as Shannon and her husband were already busy raising their young children – a life that wasn’t conducive to a touring career. Two decades later and with all seven of Shannon’s children now mostly grown, Unfinished is her official and long-awaited comeback to music.

“This Canadian thrush displays plenty of finger-snapping sass on this rollicking, bluesy ‘attitude’ tune (Take This Rock – And Roll)” ~ Robert K Oermann, Music Row Nashville
