Harrison 'Shagbo' Ennis has been in his ai studio producing and arranging his new dynamic music - new and exciting instrument combinations that have elicited excitement from select listeners.
I got a guitar in high school, learned 3 chords, and started my first band. Paid my way through college, had a lapse of performing for 10 years, but then resurrected as a solo act doing all original music, except for a few stylized covers. I did small clubs such as the Cellar Door in D.C. and was lucky enough to have opened shows around the southeast for JJ Cale, John Hiatt, John Prine, Hank Williams Jr, Link Wray, Hazel Dickens, Dolly Parton, Juice Newton, Emmylou Harris, David Allan Coe, Wille Nelson and a host of others.
I have an appreciation for many recording and performing artist. I will note Al Green, Joe Cocker, Beatles, Buffalo Springfield, Byrds, James Brown, Keb Mo, Robert Cray, Bonnie Raitt, Johnny Winter, Allman Bros, CSN&Y, Flying Burrito Bros, Jackson Brown, Neil Young, Subdudes, Tom Petty, YO YO Ma, Pattie Labelle, Hardaway Connection and numerous others. I'm a music devourer across the board. I write with influences from blues, rock, r&b, shag beach, country, southern rock, and jazz danceable,
My instruments of choice were Ovation and Washburn acoustic electric guitars and the GibsonLes Paul Custom electric guitar. I got out of the business, as such, many years ago. I now use online music studio software to create, arrange, and produce some of the 100 songs I have written. I have eclectic taste, so I write in different genres, and sometimes not too often heard instrument combinations.
Would I like to perform in front of an audience again? Only if I'm given 6 months to rehearse, am over paid, am given a dressing room with special food, and am offered sexual favors!
I have just completed getting U.S Copyrights on several songs and am in the proces of submitting them to distributing outlets around the world. So, check back every now and then for updates on where to find my music.
Thanx, Harrison 'Shagbo' Ennis
