Australian born Shane Stephens, a singer/songwriter, guitarist and piano player who performs a blend of americana, pop/rock. With soulful, dynamic vocals and well crafted songs critics have described his sound as a cross between Matchbox 20, Counting Crows and John Mayer.

‘Starboard Heart’ is his second independent album release in the last 2 years as a solo artist and was written arranged and produced by Shane in 2004 and was mixed and engineered by Mark Matson (Sheryl Crow, Gin Blossoms).

“ I am very excited about the release of this album and look forward to playing it live and having radio embrace it ..….. the writing and recording process of this work was very relaxed and what came out was something that was honest and real.”

Shane’s first small break came back in Australia with the indie-band ‘Complicated Game’ back in 2000. The edgy EP ‘5 Easy Pieces’ boasted four singles and was widely received by television, radio and print media.

A solo career however beckoned so he packed his bags and moved to Europe to write, tour and find his own sound. He performed live throughout the U.K, Germany, Czech Republic and France before landing in Las Vegas just two years ago to headline his own shows at both the MGM Grand and the Bellagio.

This gave him the financial freedom, time and a visa to record his debut solo album ‘Laugh until it hurts’ and find his place within the U.S market place. In only a year this album sold over 15,000 units just from his shows in Las Vegas with no radio play or any publicity. With this in mind he set about recording his latest release ‘Starboard Heart’, relocated to Nashville and is now ready to license, tour and promote his latest album throughout the U.S.

Other highlights of Stephens’ career have included everything from singing the U.S National Anthem to millions on HBO for a World Title fight, opening NBL baseball games to doing private and corporate performances in front of world leaders.

Stephens’ has won over hordes of fans everywhere he’s already played, garnering glowing reviews from music critics along the way. With a decade of international experience and a naturally gifted musical talent, Stephens is a sure star rising.
