Park Hyatt Saigon proudly welcomes new resident entertainer Shannon Hurley, a songwriter and pianist from Nashville, Tennessee. Plan an evening at Park Lounge to enjoy live performances by Shannon from now to 18 February 2010 every day, except Tuesdays.

Hand-picked by Rolling Stone as one of the top 25 singers on MySpace, Shannon’s alternative pop style has often been compared to Aimee Mann and Sarah McLachlan, but her songwriting and singing have lifted her to a place that is completely her own.

What put this Indiana-born artist on this path was a move to LA after studying songwriting with Pat Leonard (hit writer for Madonna). Shannon then spent time honing her own material and also became a session musician. By 2005, she was touring with Universal Motown artist Brie Larson, opening for Jesse McCartney, Gwen Stefani, The Black-Eyed Peas and Gavin DeGraw.

This spring saw the release of Shannon’s debut album, “Ready to Wake Up”, a pop record that pulls in a little help from Shannon’s heavy-hitting friends, namely KCRW favourite Carmen Rizzo, as well as Guy Erez, producer and writer for Jennifer Love-Hewitt, Sarah Bettens and Ryan Cabrera, all of whom pitch in to make this album shine. “Ready to Wake Up” reveals an even more tuneful pop music from this maturing artist as her soul-moving songs offer listeners a breath of fresh air
