Susan Shaughnessy has been a poet for fifteen years, but began putting her words to
original music and found her calling in songwriting six years ago. In that time, she has played
to sold out crowds at the famous Duplex in New York City, recorded a full-length album with
producer Rob Freeman (Hidden In Plain View, Armor For Sleep), and worked as a session
singer for DeFacto Music, Green Thumb Music and MIke Kovacs and the Post-Modern Tribe.
Most recently, Susan recorded backup vocals at Avatar Studios in New York City for Todd
English’s album, produced by Chino Maurice (Beyonce Knowles, Whitney Houston, Brandy).

With a BA in Music Industry and four years of radio and record label experience, Susan is a
music industry professional who is attuned to the ins and outs of the music world. Her
honest, relatable lyrics, visceral orchestrations and experience in this exigent business are
Susan’s strongest qualities.

She also loves hair.
