Shannon Campbell is a completely self-taught singer/songwriter of the folk persuasion located in Greenville, South Carolina. She's been playing guitar for about nine or ten years now, and performing in bars, clubs, festivals and coffeeshops since about 1998. Although she has a distinct acoustic playing style, it's her vocals that stand out, conveying powerful emotion with every word she sings. Her combination of an unapologetic stage presence, between-song bantering that borders on comedy hour, and a personal, yet universal writing style captivates audiences each time she plays. Shannon's been successful as a live musician; she's performed solo, was a co-founder of the duo Folk You Harder along with Kerstin Hanson, and she and Nathan Davis tore up southern North Carolina for about a year not too long ago. But it's the internet where she's truly been able to network, reaching new fans on a daily basis and garnering anywhere from 3,000 to 8,000 downloads a month of her original material.
