Shannon Whitworth

About Me

"Her vocals are some of the most expressive, and sultry, that I've ever heard."
- David Royko, Chicago Tribune

“An interesting and sporadically brilliant musician, with a smoky singing voice that reminds me of a gritter Neko Case or a harder Patsy Cline.”
- Seth Wilson - The Pulse, Chattanooga

 “Shannon Whitworth's fluid voice rolls lazily over her lyrics; contemporary, bluesy, rooted in traditional but bearing a feel of Billie Holiday” - Carol Mallett Rifkin - Asheville Citizen Times
