Reviews
Shawn, your music is so beautiful and gives me so much peace. Your songs convey so much confidence, faith, trust, and hope. Especially the last three songs on the CD touch me to the point of tears that I just can’t stop. These songs penetrate deep into my soul. Thank you for your music and for the confidence of your faith that becomes visible when you sing. And having seen you sing, it has blessed me to see how your body, spirit, and soul become one and unite in worship and to see the confidence of your faith and hope in God radiate. Shawn, may you reach many people and may their faith and strength in Christ be renewed through your music.

Yeah! Great strong voiced gospel with swirly keyboards and sax like
70's gospel pop. Good stuff!

Last night [at the event] our 3-year old was really drawn by your music. She so wanted the God's Lullaby song. When we got home she insisted that she fall asleep to it. We put the CD player on repeat, and she listened to it until she was fast asleep. Today she wanted it to be playing in the van and at home. She is already starting to memorize the songs! I just thought it was out of the ordinary for a 3 year old to be drawn to music outside of her age group. Your music is soothing to her, and I love that she desires to listen to and learn the words. I love that those words of your song are in her head after we pray with her at bedtime. It's good for her be assured her Daddy God is watching over her. She even wanted to know if you all lived close so you can come over. The sincerity of a child. May you and your family be blessed [in your] ministry. Your voice and music are anointed, and we look forward to watching God work in and through you all.

As I was listening to the CD, looking at the picture with the song titles of the CD, it seemed as though I was right there with Shawn, seeing him sing. He really has an awesome voice. I love to hear his full voice that conveys at the same time so much sensitivity and warmth.

I just finished listening to your CD "Someone Like Me" and I really enjoyed it! It brought a sense of calmness to me. I agree it is very easy listening.

“Someone Like Me” was a special surprise. I knew you had a gift for music but I was unaware of the depth and range of your voice until I listened to your CD “Someone Like Me.”
The CD “Someone Like Me” gently ushers you to a place of praise & worship. Each track carries a message of healing and peace. The background music has a soothing, yet jazzy upbeat tempo that allows for a remembrance of the fullness of God’s grace and mercy. God bless you,

“Someone Like Me” is an awesomely anointed CD. I enjoyed every single selection. It met me exactly where I live!!! I am certain it will touch you too!

I’ve been listening to Shawn’s CD, and it is really good. There are a couple of songs that were written just for me, “Hold On To Me” and “God’s Lullaby.” I wish I would have had this CD back in October but God’s timing is perfect anyway.
