As long as I can remember, it has been my dream to share my music with you. Through My Eyes, my first cd, is very special because of the way it was created. I had the unique opportunity to work with Ken Medema, a multi-talented composer, songwriter and performer. Ken listened to me, he connected with ideas I shared about my life and the world, and then he magically created songs that speak from my heart. Though blind from birth, Ken somehow knew exactly what I wanted to say, and he has allowed me to share that with you.
"She is fourteen; I met her mother at one of my performances. "You should hear my daughter sing", she said. I thought about screaming because I have heard this so many times before. I didn't scream, I listened and was transfixed. This is a wonderful voice with tremendous flexibility. The disc entitled Through My Eyes shows off the many styles of which Shannon is capable. As the writer of most of the songs, I feel very pleased with our work together. I would recommend this album to you; I think you will find it a pleasure. There is a sweetness, a gentleness and a youthful enthusiasm here that warms the heart" Ken Medema,producer,singer/songwriter
