Biography

How will empathetic people survive the troubles of this time? How do we rescue our overburdened spirits from overlapping disasters such as rising fascism and climate collapse? And from where can we summon the power to heal ourselves, our communities, and the planet? 
 These are the animating questions behind Shannon Curtis’s new album Good To Me—her second collection of shimmering 80s-inspired synthpop in as many years. 
 Curtis has been making music for 25 years—first as the frontwoman for a Christian-lite rock band in her twenties while a pastor’s wife, then as a chanteuse divorcée composing broken-hearted love songs after leaving both her marriage and her religion. 
 As a result of constant house concert touring, the last decade saw Curtis developing both a passionate underground following and also an album-based songwriting style, centered around taking her audiences on intentional journeys of personal growth. 
 The pandemic gave Curtis renewed resolve to use her music as a way to engage her community in connection and healing; it also gave her more time at home to explore and hone a new musical direction, a process which saw her teaching herself synthesizer and drum-machine programming and taking on most of her own production. 
 Response to Curtis's new sound has been immediate: the title song from Good to Me has spent 3 months in the listener top 5 on commercial AAA radio in the Pacific Northwest. 
 The Good to Me tour will bring Curtis to the rest of the USA in 2023.
