| Powerhouse Shannon Curfman is Back with a New Album Minneapolis 2010 Guitarist and singer/songwriter Shannon Curfman burst upon the blues and roots rock scene in 1999 with her major-label debut for Arista Records, Loud Guitars, Big Suspicions. Her exceptionally well-produced, debut album won her rave reviews all over the U.S, Canada, Europe and Asia, aside from lots of airplay on radio stations in the U.S. Curfman made several U.S. club and theater tours in support of Loud Guitars, Big Suspicions, and garnered huge amounts of publicity, because she was only 14 at the time. Now 24, Curfman is back with a new and even more mature album that shows she is the proven artist that many thought she would develop into. "What You're Getting Into" is Curfman's new album recorded at Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis' epic Flyte Tyme Studios in Minneapolis, MN. Special guests on the album include platinum-selling artist Joe Bonamassa playing and singing a duet with Shannon of a classic Eric Clapton song and multi-platinum artist Stevie D from Buckcherry on a cover of a song by Queen. The album features seven brand new, original songs that Curfman co-wrote with writers from Aerosmith, Lenny Kravitz, Kid Rock, Ozzy Osbourne, Jonny Lang and Sheryl Crow and a cover of Oh Well by Fleetwood Mac that goes to show what a powerhouse Shannon really is. Between the songwriting, Curfman's saucy and demanding vocals and her scorching lead guitar it is an album that will speak for itself. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Jazz News :: home page |
