ShannonMarie

Shannon Marie was raised on a farm in the country hills of Tennessee. At an early age she was mesmerized by the rhythm of music and gave concerts for the local farm animals. Thanks to her elementary music teacher who gave her private piano lessons she learned to read music and by the time she entered high school was playing two instruments.

In high school she excelled as a solo artist and won several state championships. Later in college she performed as a soloist with a professional group. During this time she obtained a bachelors degree in Nursing.

After graduating college she worked in several European markets as a professional model appearing in national magazines such as Seventeen, W, Bazaar, NY Times Magazine, and many others. During that time she recorded and performed in Paris, Germany, Italy, Jamaica, and South Africa.

After 911 Shannon Marie's song Because I'm American was selected for radio airplay out of 500 submissions.
