Shannon Scott Biography
SHANNON SCOTT is a vocalist/pianist from Red Deer, Alberta. She graduated in 2006 from Capilano University’s Bachelor of Jazz Studies program, and has since been an active musician in Vancouver's scene. With a diverse musical background, Shannon has recorded, performed and toured with projects that range from her original jazz-meets-folk noir project, to a vintage vocal harmony group (Company B Jazz Band), to collaborative work with interdisciplinary composer Barbara Adler and vocal arrangements with Canadian spoken word icon CR Avery. In her time at Capilano University, Shannon also had the honour of performing with such internationally renowned artists as Ed Thigpen, Jimmy Heath, and Jean-Michel Pilc.
Shannon's project of original alt-jazz compositions was nominated for both the 2007 and 2009 Galaxie Rising Star award, and in 2009 she released her first full-length album. With both this project as well as with her jazz group Poetrio (also performing original compositions, as well as arrangements of instrumental jazz standards with original lyrics) Shannon performed nearly every year in the Vancouver International Jazz Festival, from 2007 to present. In her collaborative work with CR Avery, Shannon has had the privilege of performing at both the Vancouver Folk Music Festival (2013, 2016) and the Calgary Folk Music Festival (2013).
