Dyshon aka Shon Penn, Singer/ Songwriter/ Performer has been honing his craft in NY , Philly, and now ATL since he left home at age 16 after he was told by a father who didn't support the path of his music, that he had to cease doing secular music with the vocal group he had joined. His mother, a singer herself, had always him to use his gift and that very night Dyshon moved out and hasn't looked back. Now at 24yrs old this powerful songwriter and incredible performer has garnered the respect of his peers and even his pop has given up trying to persuade him to seek another path!
