Formed in the beginning of 1998 by Patrice LOUIS (Guitar) and Thierry DAGNICOURT (Keyboards), SHANNON remarkably plays a melodic hard rock that sticks to its skin. During the spring of 1998, the band enroles ex-JANNYLEE's singer Olivier DEL VALLE behind the mike, then Claude THILL (ex-DER KAISER) and Maxence PILO (ex-HEAVENLY) join the band to finally complete the line-up. Inspired by the US Melodic Hard Rock from the 80's/90's, SHANNON is now ready to become one of the newest leaders and brightest hopes of the genre. Their debut and eponymous album released in November 2003 on the Anvilcorp. label and distributed by Wagram has been unanimously praised and regarded by the international press as one of the most impressive and brilliant record of the year in the Classic 80's US melodic rock style. With catchy hooklines, infectious choruses and a groovy and powerful rhythm section, SHANNON is the perfect alchimy between classic US melodic hard rock and typical european influenced NWOBHM sound, delivering a music as powerful as melodic. But this is really live on stage that the music of SHANNON even reaches another higher ground, drawing more and more enthusiastic and devoted fans to their ranks as dates go by. From the release of the album, the band takes the road and shares the stage with re-knowned artists such as AXXIS, PINK CREAM 69 and Jeff Scott SOTO in Paris. In the middle of 2005, SHANNON sees its first line-up changes with the departure of Claude THILL and Maxence PILO, immediately replaced by, respectively, Nicolas FIXY (Bass) and Benjamin BERGEROLLE (Drums), both formerly with French Epic-Progressive band TAÏ PHONG. Strongly encouraged with the success of their self-titled album, not only in France, but largerly abroad, the band has taken the path to the studio to record a follow-up, even more motivated than ever. The World Of Desire EP, 5 demo tracks, was released in 2007. SHANNON played several shows to present the new songs and was selected to play before GOTTHARD at the Raismes Fest Festival. Some special guests are invited and done some background vocals (Gianni Pontillo, Ben Sotto, Ben Venet, Bruno Levesque, Jens Walkenhorst) and a duet (Renaud Hantson). The band signed with ArtistService at the end of 2007 and Angel In Disguise, the brand new album, is world wide distributed by MusicBuyMail. 13 new songs of pure Melodic Hard Rock !
