A natural born singer/songwriter from the outer suburbs of Melbourne, Shannon Kennedy has grown up always wanting to be a musician. Her life as a performer began at school concerts and at the tender age of only 16, Shannon began performing on Melbourne’s vastly competitive music scene, turning heads at highly recognized venues such as Ruby’s Lounge, St Andrews Hotel and Hard Rock Café. This year has seen Shannon supporting aussie band Little Birdy, and she scored herself a spot at Blueprint Festival with artists such as Bertie Blackman, Blue King Brown, Old Man River, Jebediah, Tim Rogers, Shane Nicholson, Claire Bowdich, Ash Grunwald and many more. Her sound can be described as “infectious”, as her engaging voice blends with the soothing sound of her acoustic guitar. Her influences are drawn from a vast range of music like Elvis, Jeff Buckley, Missy Higgins and The Used, which with time will see Shannon build a sound that is truly unique. Hard work and commitment has seen Shannon shortlisted for the 2009 APRA Professional Development Awards. Shannon has recently released her first EP, Live At Cue Bar Melbourne 2009 and is currently in the studio recording an album, featuring input from the truly gifted singer/songwriter Geoff Achison. Things are only getting started for this promising young talent.

Once again I have a favour to ask of everyone out there in the MySpace world, and I’m sorry because I know these things can get a bit annoying, but every vote counts, and I am happy to return the favour if you need me to vote or rate anything of yours, so… if you get the chance could you please rate my new song “Million Miles Away” on Triple J Unearthed?
Hi Shannon. Just wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving. Not sure if you guys celebrate that there. Anyway I am so happy to be a fellow label mate. You are truley awsome. Keep on Rockin girl........

It's getting towards the end of the year and i'm just wrapping things up with one last show in Geelong and a short tour through Tassie, with Ben Wells supporting!
It's been a great year so far, full of fantastic shows, great support slots with Marty Simpson (Australian Idol), Jon Stevens (Noiseworks), Daryl Braithwaite, Diesel, a couple of interstate tours and my debut EP release! It's been fun guys and girls, so let's see it off with a bang!
If you're in Victoria make sure you come down the Bended Elbow next Thursday the 26th of November to celebrate!! Or if you're in Tassie I'll see you there between the 29th of November and the 6th of December!
Either way I'd like to thank everyone for their endless support, 2009 has seen me reach new heights and has set the bar high for 2010!! But there are already some big plans in place...
Keep in touch and thanks again!
