    <title>Shauna Burns</title>
    <description>Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Shauna Burns burst onto the music scene in 2005 with her debut album Every Thought to rave reviews and acclamation. Musical Discoveries declares "There is no doubt that Every Thought contains a dynamic energy in its complex blend of sounds and striking lyrics. Shauna has a unique style of singing, and combined with her virtuoso piano instrumentals, she has put together an album that is moving and intense." While Smother.net quotes Every Thought, as "a new fangled fusion that will ignite a spark that will be hard to replicate. Perfect.'"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Moon and the Fire Circle is Shauna's next musical expression set for release under Red Rock Music in early 2008. A journey from the light to the dark and back to the light again, Shauna takes us with her as we travel deep into the underworld of different points of view. But as she says, "The twist in the story is who is telling us which is light and which is dark? From who's point of view are we looking?" Powerful songwriting, enchanting piano, vocals and strong percussion are delicately mixed with flavorful guitar, harp and cello to create the perfect universe where The Moon and the Fire Circle combine to embrace the soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shauna's ethereal vocals and beautiful piano developed while growing up in Miami, Florida. Inspired by her mother's love for the piano, her song writing thrived and when she headed west for college and her music met cheers and enthusiastic recognition. After receiving a bachelor's degree in Anthropology at the University of Utah, Shauna spent a year in Europe preparing her debut album. Released under Red Rock Music, Every Thought gained not only stellar critical acclaim and a healthy following but Shauna embarked on a vigorous national US tour from coast to coast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shauna's songwriting extension to Every Thought, is her 2006 followup EP release entitled, Desert Tune. This 5 song EP is witty and playful while in harmony with her nature of being personal and captivating. Shauna and her piano are once again joined by co-producer and drummer James Clark, Ryan Tilby on guitar and bass with Steve Lemmon on guitar. Inspired by residing in a desert landscape, Desert Tune gives the listener a different pair of eyes to view what this world can give and take from us - physically and emotionally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shauna's debut CD, Every Thought was selected as one of the Top CD's of 2005 by Collected Sounds and the single, 'Pink Girl', was chosen as the 1 single from the MAACP show. The album was chosen for 'Best of the Batch' from the Music Industry News Network and featured on TowerPod.com, Billboard, VH1, Artist Direct, AOL Music, Fox TV and countless others.</description>

      <title>around you &amp; tour thoughts</title>
      <description>hello everyone ~ :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;well, i've finally got time to blog about the wrapping up of the &lt;strong&gt;Desert Tune Summer to Fall Tour&lt;/strong&gt; and some thoughts about a new special treat surfacing soon... firstly the tour.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;we headed out to the east coast for some shows at the beginning of the month and it was absolutely delicious. i've never been to philly before and we had a very nice time sneaking around the cobble stone streets. we next headed to nyc and we stayed smack-dab in the middle of times square. i mean, we had a view of all the lights from our window ~ it was awesome. i also had a chance to have tea with a dear friend alice, which you need to check out &lt;a href="http://links.imeem.com/13b2iShG" title="http://www.myspace.com/alicemariemusic"&gt;her music&lt;/a&gt; and her podcast (tea with alice marie) asap if you haven't already. i'm a big fan you could say. ;) the show was pretty rockn' too. now, i should interrupt my tour play-by-play to mention our constant companions for the trip ~ not one but two magellan's. you would think we would only need one right? no, you would be wrong. and that does not include the many, many google maps in hand. yes, we needed many directions to get from city to city. okay back to the tour ~ we then headed to boston and the beautiful autumn color. the entire trip was filled with the breathtaking fall splendor, it was magical. we had a great gig in cambridge and met some very nice people too. you can take a peek at this show in particular in the 'gigs' section of the &lt;a href="http://links.imeem.com/13CBjShG" title="http://pics.livejournal.com/shaunaburns"&gt;live journal gallery&lt;/a&gt;. at the last show, which was live online, i had myself a beautiful grand. now, i'd also like to take a min to talk about pianos, which is something i like to do regularly. truly a good piano makes for a good show. this is how i get my juice when the songs are coming, so naturally when i have a real live piano it really makes for a better show. i've had quite a few people ask me what i prefer and i am a steinway gal (it's what i have at home) but i've been touring with my roland rd 150. on this leg i rented the entire time and i'll just say that each show got better not only in sound but in pianos. we also had the entire full band which is also quite tasty as you can imagine. we had a great time and especially at this last very special show. now, if you missed the live show we should have some footage up in the near future ~ we were all very pleased with how it came out. :)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;so i'd like to thank some people who really helped us out on this leg and really through out the entire tour. first of all james for being you, chip for all your love, bryce for being my brain and arms, steve, marc, and ryan for kickn' serious booty. thanks to those who helped with instruments and of course everyone who came out to the shows to listen, many, many, many, many, many snugs to you!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;i've uploaded some new pictures in both the 'gigs' and 'candids' Live Journal gallery too:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://links.imeem.com/13CBjShG" title="http://pics.livejournal.com/shaunaburns"&gt;http://pics.livejournal.com/shaunaburns&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;okay ~ now on to more exciting stuff ~ the new album!! :D&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;you can now hear a brand new song on the front myspace page called &lt;strong&gt;Around You&lt;/strong&gt;. we are almost done with the new &lt;a href="http://links.imeem.com/23555kShG" title="http://www.shaunaburns.com/"&gt;Shauna Burns.com&lt;/a&gt; website ~ it will hopefully be done this week. we have a lot of very cool stuff coming so please stay close!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;more soon,&lt;br&gt;shauna</description>
