Shannon Brown is the product of a small town in Iowa and of a childhood filled with the music floating out of the nightclubs and restaurants her parents owned. She quickly graduated from the hairbrush-microphone stage and by her late teens, she was taking the stage at the family club. Although she could sing anything, her tastes and her show were rooted firmly in country music. Her country delivery was infused with a soulfulness born of hours of listening to Aretha Franklin and Ray Charles.

After several years of touring the Midwest with her father running the soundboard and her mom running lights, Shannon decided to make the move to Music City USA. She paid the bills singing songwriters' demo sessions and managed to maintain her Midwestern touring schedule of 160 dates a year. Her vocal stylings and industrious approach did not go unnoticed. She landed a major label record deal, made a record, and dealt with the ups and downs of corporate restructuring and the fickle nature of the music business.

Having weathered that storm, she signed a new deal with Warner Bros. Records. Her new record is a powerful statement of self that has provided her with the opportunity to record songs that reflect who she is. Along with producer and label-mate John Rich, she has created a collection of songs that is more about a return to her All-American roots than fulfilling a corporate image. She co-wrote most of the songs on the album, including the first single "Corn Fed." AOL Music will debut her new web series, This Is Shannon Brown, on July 29th. Produced by her video producer husband Shaun Silva, the series delivers a behind-the-scenes look at Shannon's journey.
