Shannon is a kind hard working extremely talented girl who always gives a 100% in whatever she does . She is also a very talented songwriter, artist and writer. Last year she sang at a number of charity events and helped raise money and entertain many people. Shannon is a kind, compassionate caring 16-year-old. She has just completed her last year at school where she was a prefect and head of the bully counsel. She has also been the Schools Music Ambassador for the last two years. Shannon’s main passion is singing, and she is determined to make it as a recording artist one day. She loves to write her own songs and perform to large audiences. Aside from singing Shannon loves to write fictional stories. Her recent fan fiction online reached 20,000 views. She is a keen writer and would love give writing for film and tv a go one day! Shannon has a real interest in supporting charity events, including the Essex Soundbite SEN festival, Time to Prevent Knife Crime Event, Lifstan Way Care Home Fund Raiser and Collier Row Carnival (after which she was presented a medal by the Mayor) to name but a few. Shannon is hoping to do more with charity this year, and she can’t wait to continue writing her own material as she wants to use her music to inspire others to overcome difficulties and believe in themselves.
Shannon has always had a passion for singing, she discovered her talent aged 10 when holidaying at a holiday park. She entered a singing competition there, and despite it being the first time she had ever performed on stage in front of anyone she ended up winning the regional finals! This then inspired her to develop her vocal ability and gain confidence by gaining experience at local events and competitions.
Since then Shannon has been lucky enough to be selected twice to perform solo at the Royal Albert Hall in London which was an amazing experience and she loved every minute.
Shannon became a finalist in Factor Essex – (a local XFACTOR spin off competition) in 2017. Performing in the live shows each week really helped develop her as the artist she wants to become. From this she went on to be nominated as Best New Break through Artist 2017 at the South East Essex Entertainment Awards. This opened more opportunities to learn and develop skills and sing at other local events. She developed her online presence, posting her covers to YouTube, Instagram and Facebook.
In 2019 Shannon entered Factor Essex again not only did she make it as a finalist in the live shows, but she took 3rd place in the final. She was nominated for the South East Essex Choice Award on the 26th of January 2020 she also performed on stage that day and later found out she had won!
Shannon has also been working with JD Elite Academy to develop herself as an artist, in November last year she performed at an event for them to an audience of 10,000 people at a fireworks event in Essex. This year Shannon hopes to continue recording her original songs and continue gigging and writing new material. In her spare time Shannon has also recently started to learn to play snooker and darts and has started to enjoy going out walking.
