Shanon

I've been debating about whether I should publish this on my music website or on my blog. I decided to do it on the latter, for reasons that now appear obvious to me.

I can't remember much of the night, except for Kaleal's sarcastic remarks and Shanon's smiling face. I couldn't believe that it was Shanon - the girl I knew from Kaleal's yoga course. Well, I didn't exactly know her, it was just that she had then been quiet - very quiet. Like night and day. And funnily, I had known her only during the day.

Shanon Beaugendre, from a family of music artists, doesn't want any of the bullshit associated with celebrity. She's only interested to live her art, and be happy with it. Under the starlit sky, she successfully convinced me to listen to Eric Triton's fabulous music punctuated by a superhuman guitar scratching ability and funny lyrics.

If the future of the local music industry is relying on the shoulders of young people like her, I guess that we'll be pretty safe for the next 40-50 years to come.
