We’re pleased to announce that Shaun Garrison is our new featured artist this week on the Catholic Playlist show. Back in August 2014 we told you about Shaun’s Kickstarter project to record his first album, and we’re pleased to tell you that it’s here! Before we go too far, let’s get to know him a little better. Shaun is originally from Pensacola, Florida and moved to Denver, Colorado in 2001. He’s been involved with youth and music ministry at various parishes, along with campus ministry as a FOCUS missionary. Along with being a husband and father to 4 children, one of his greatest passions is music and song writing. On his Kickstarter campaign page Shaun says that “God planted this desire in me about 15 years ago, this inexplicable longing to write and record original music. I’ve been waiting a long time to see this come to fruition. This isn’t just a “fun project” – it’s the realization of a dream, a major life goal.”

As you know his fundraising was successful and on January 1st he released his debut album, titled “Exceeding”. His sound reminds me of All Sons and Daughters, so if you like their music you’ll enjoy this album. For his Catholic Playlist debut we’ll be playing the title track “Exceeding”.
