Shonn Hinton has been performing in the Milwaukee scene for over a decade now. Born into a family of musicians (his father is a guitarist, and his mother is an organist/singer), Shonn began to play the guitar at the tender age of 12. He’s built up a solid foundation in this city while developing his unique playing style with elements of classic R&B, blues, jazz, pop, rock, and hip-hop.
With five albums, and four singles under his belt Shonn’s mission, passion, and vision get clearer by the second which is to not only resurrect real music, but also true love music.
Shonn’s gifts have truly made room for him and have given him the ability to play with some really great artists such as:
- Young Money Recording Artist: Lil Wayne
- Geffen Recording Artist: Mary J. Blige
- Jive Recording Artist: Angie Stone
- Def Jam Recording Artist – 112
- Geffen Recording Artist: Avant
- Def Jam Recording Artist: Kelly Price
- Jive Recording Artist: Syleena Johnson
- Epic Recording Artist: Glenn Lewis
- Columbia Recording Artist: Michelle Williams (from the group Destiny’s Child)
- Blackberry Recording Artist: The Williams Brothers
- Motown Recording Artist: Dave Hollister
- Columbia Recording Artist: John Legend
And the list doesn’t stop there. Shonn is a phenomenal drummer, bassist, song producer, and studio musician. He has unlimited talents, and his unique sound will always keep you guessing…yet yearning for more.
Currently, and when not touring, Shonn performs as a solo artist.…
