(Little Rock, AR- September 15, 2008) – Little Rock’s own, Shannon Boshears and her band, will host the release of her 2nd CD, “Black Mascara” on Saturday, Nov. 8 at Cajun’s Wharf. A follow-up to her 2001 release of “Chicksinger”, Boshears continues to explore her southern roots on this sophomore effort.
“I’m very inspired by the south and all the area that surrounds me here. I tend to draw on it a lot for my writing,” Boshears explains. Born and raised in Little Rock, AR, she grew up in an area infused with blues, country, rock and gospel. It’s all of these genres of music that are found on “Black Mascara”. “All of that music is the same to me, really. It’s such a fine line – even though they may sound different, they each produce the same effect. I get the same feeling from blues music that I do from gospel – it’s a yearning for something else, something that no person or thing can satisfy in me.” Read more…
