Shawna Russell

Oklahoma recording artist Shawna Russell has released her latest single and video, "Get Right Or Get Left." The song is from her forthcoming self-titled sophomore album, co-produced in Nashville by Julian King (Grammy-winning engineer for Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Toby Keith) Clif Doyal & Tim Russell. The album reflects Shawna's growth as an artist and a maturity of her song crafting skills. Shawna wrote - or co-wrote - the 10 songs on the project and they provide the listener with a deeper personal connection to her varied influences and artistic expression. From the guitar-driven Country Rock sounds that are her trademark, to Southern-influenced Country R&B, and mandolin-tinged Americana, 'SHAWNA RUSSELL' presents the Oklahoma songbird at a new creative pinnacle.
Shawna first came on to the national and international music scene with the release of her debut album, GODDESS (Way Out West Records), in 2008, for which she co-wrote 12 of the 13 songs. Critical acclaim followed: the CMA named her "Who New to Watch," and top music critics weighed in with praise for her debut. Chris Neal of COUNTRY WEEKLY gave GODDESS a 3 ½ star review, MUSIC ROW's Robert K.Oermann bestowed a "DISCovery Award," his highest compliment to a new artist, and rave reviews followed from CMA CLOSE UP, MAVERICK (UK), NASHVILLE MUSIC GUIDE, DREAMWEST (France), THE OKLAHOMAN, MUSIC NEWS NASHVILLE, COUNTRY STARS ONLINE and others.
