Influences: Shannon's music is influenced strongly by Lucinda Williams, Patty Griffin, Rufus Wainwright, Todd Snider, Carole King, Tom Petty, Todd Park Mohr (Big Head Todd) and, many, many more.
Sounds Like: Owl Magazine (The Who's Who in Bay Area Music) declares "Watch Your Step wedges Shannon Ferry somewhere between Linda Perry (4 Non Blondes) and Tracy Chapman, intermittently stirring up sounds of a Bonnie Raitt - Janis Joplin hybrid". Shannon has also garnered media comparisons to Chrissie Hynde, Patty Griffin, Lucinda Williams, Joan Jett and Grace Slick, among others.
