Biography

Season 14 contestant on NBC's The Voice, and former lead singer/songwriter and founding member of the band Bitter:Sweet, Shana Halligan has sold more than 500,000 records and has accumulated over 70 album credits to her name. Additionally, her music has received numerous high-profile synchs in film, TV, and ad campaigns, including Youth & Consequences, Sex and The City, The Devil Wears Prada, “The Feud,” “The Blacklist,” “Orange Is The New Black,” "Being Mary Jane," "Queen Sugar," “Entourage,” “Nip Tuck,” “Grey's Anatomy” and “Desperate Housewives,” just to name a few. She’s also collaborated with many major acts, including writing and recording with Serj Tankian of System Of A Down, Thievery Corporation (co-writing and performing their biggest hit in recent years “Depth Of My Soul”), waxtailor and Nouvelle Vague, and has performed at several celebrated venues around the globe, including the Hollywood Bowl, The Kennedy Center, and The Royal Albert Hall. The sultry songstress’ most recent solo endeavor, Back To Me, is an exploration of human sensuality told through songs of romance, heartache and personal reflection. Adding that perfectly sealed kiss of mystique, pain and hope, Halligan’s uniquely tortured voice brings back the art of classic vocal allure mixed with modern-day, moody production.
