Here's a recent quote from Acoustic, Raw and Real. It reflects the core principles that this CD's music represents. “As a Musician, I find it important to play Music a lot. As a writer, I have so many stories and things to tell. As a recording Artist, I have “an out” for all the good, the bad, and ugly things that come around in a person’s life. As a giver, I am sharing with you some personal stories. In my life, this music is how I Come to Terms. I became a Gentleman. Within these songs, the words and music may remind you of a time when you needed “an out”. Something that helps you, find some peace and be at home with yourself… Know that you are wonderful as well…” Best Regards Shane O’Brien Latest News The 19th annual Los Angeles Music Awards 2009 has announced the album _ Acoustic, Raw and Real by Shane OBrien has received a nomination for an award in the Acoustic Album category.
