SUMMARY:Shawn Mullins at Columbia College Concert Hall
DESCRIPTION:Details: Meet the Artist with Shawn Mullins  Meet the Music Department's Artist in Residence, Grammy-Nominated Singer & Songwriter Shawn Mullins!ABOUT SHAWN MULLINSForging influences from folk and punk to jazz and Broadway musicals with pop-leaning melodic sensibilities, Shawn Mullins crafts memorable, affecting tunes that cross many genres on his all new album, My Stupid Heart. Mullins discography includes 1998s Souls Core, the album that shot him to fame on the strength of its GRAMMY-nominated No. 1 hit, Lullaby, and 2006s 9th Ward Pickin Parlor, which contained his AAA/Americana No. 1, Beautiful Wreck. He also co-wrote the Zac Brown Bands No. 1 country tune, Toes. But in the years since his last release, 2010s Light You Up, Mullins has experienced more ups and downs on his romantic roller-coaster  a ride hes decided to step off for a while. On My Stupid Heart, the GRAMMY nominated, platinum selling artist, deftly balances songs of suffering  from the title tune and Go and Fall, to the powerful, yet subtle social commentary of Ferguson with songs such as Roll on By, which strikes an upbeat note of hope. The Levon Helm-influenced Never Gonna Let Her Go reveals the thrills of riding that afore-mentioned roller-coaster, and even the sigh of resignation that is The Great Unknown contains lines so striking, you cant help but smile at their brilliance and depth.
