Hello! My name is Shannon and I am a singer/songwriter based just outside of Nashville. I've performed at countless small town festivals, writers rounds, and shows, along with more major festivals like The Smokey Mountain Songwriters Festival and Folk Alliance International. My music style is singer/songwriter pop. I play a wide variety of cover music that covers an array of genres to keep the audience interested no matter their musical tastes!

I am a solo acoustic singer songwriter with years of experience performing in front of crowds big and small. You can expect me to come dressed for the occasion, always a little quirky, with a smile on my face. I try to captivate the audience workout being loud or obnoxious in between songs. My set list is very "singer-songwriter" and will feature mostly cover songs unless requested otherwise! I'd love to play all originals but realize that doesn't always fit the mood. I don't usually take so my requests from the audience but I can totally incorporate new songs into my set ahead of time!
I always show up early and always come prepared with extra cables, batteries for my guitar, etc.
Singer/Songwriter Shannon McNeal is on the verge of blossoming into national prominence. Her unique and eclectic acoustic pop style has garnered attention among music fans and industry professionals. At 23 years of age, McNeal has already performed on many prestigious stages including CMA Fest, Folk Alliance International Conference, and The Smoky Mountain Songwriters Festival and has been a semi-finalist in Nashville Rising Song competition multiple times. With her natural storytelling ability and easy onstage persona, McNeal has been compared to the likes of Taylor Swift, but with a style all her own.
Upon request I can provide sound equipment but prefer this to be at the gig already. I'm a solo act so my setup is incredibly simple. I do not have lighting that I can provide. As long as the sound system is provided as requested I don't require and audio engineer :)
