Shaughnessy

Shaughnessy is a singer/songwriter/musician from the North West of England. It seems an obvious thing to say, but with Shaughnessy, the song is king. The constant pursuit of melody and hooks keeps Shaughnessy reaching for something classic.

Early 2007 saw Shaughnessy sign a recording deal with Easy Money Records and the rest of the year was spent recording his debut album, ‘Big Wide World’. This being due for release in March 2009. Shaughnessy has also recently become a new endorsee for Ikon Footwear, sharing the accolade with, amongst others, Madness, Ocean Colour Scene, From The Jam, Dirty Pretty Things and Darren J. Connett, and most recently Fred Perry and 3 Stroke Clothing have come on board to endorse Shaughnessy too.

Shaughnessy lives for playing live, believing that this is where the art and craft of a musician are truly put to the test. In the past, Shaughnessy has supported the likes of The Christians, Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros, Ian McLagan, The Proclaimers , and many more, along with many gigs up and down the country and abroad.
