Shannon Shaw: Gemini Sun, Libra Moon, Capricorn Rising

Shannon Shaw’s signature is to channel her layered feelings into her art. As the founder and vocalist of the indie punk band Shannon and the Clams, she has shared about some of the hardest things in her life through her music. Earlier this year Shannon and her band released their latest album: The Moon is in the Wrong Place. Tasked with the uniquely difficult need to express and explore the various stages of grief after the shocking death of her fiancé, The Moon is in the Wrong Place is a vulnerable and honest journey filtered through the band’s signature garage-soul sound. Isa Nakazawa discusses how Shannon’s Capricorn rising serves as the catalyst to explore her artistic expression despite being told music wasn’t for her. While her Gemini Sun knows how to move fluidly between ecstasy, despair, grief and eternal love.
