Tulsa native born and raised, Shayeon (pronounced shay-aun) didn’t grow up singing at a young age, nor did she grow up singing in the church choir. It was only when she participated in the 1999/2000 Miss Black Tulsa Pageant where she sang the classic gospel song, “Victory In Jesus†that she realized that she had the gift of song. After receiving an overwhelming crowd response, Shayeon experienced her “moment of clarity†that you hear artists talk about when they find their calling.In 2001, she signed a production deal with a local entertainment company as one half of the duo TNS (Tara N Shay) with a college friend Tara Ivery. Though very little was accomplished by signing the deal, this minor setback gave Shayeon the confidence she needed to start establishing herself as a serious female vocalist.Shayeon began sitting in on the sets with Tulsa band Full Flava Kings at local night clubs, as well as doing studio work with other artists singing and writing hooks, which would eventually lead her to meet producer Larry Stokes of Black Couch Music.In 2004, Shayeon wrote 5 of the 10 songs on her debut release Learning Experiences, including the heart felt expression of love following the death of her father in a song called “Rescue Meâ€.Now living in California’s Bay Area, Shayeon is continuing to establish herself as a singer/songwriter and performer. Adding to her repertoire, she is also a poet/spoken word artist and will be publishing her first book of poetry, Words Unspoken, in January 2008.Blessed with natural talent and Southern charm that gives her music and poetry an easily relatable down to earth appeal, Shayeons’ Learning Experiences is a diverse and honest journey that is just the beginning for this Tulsa native.The CD can be purchased below orFor more information contact: [email protected]
