Welcome!
I am a passionate film composer and music producer on a mission to blur the boundaries between genres. I find particular inspiration in classical, orchestral and electronica genres. Classical music is my foundation. I fell in love with orchestral music when I started writing music to film.
Below are some featured film/video projects
Music Showcase
Listen to the playlist below featuring a selection of my work ranging in a wide variety of genres, styles, and moods.
Evelyn Seubert, President -IYMS, Producer of SANATIONE
Shannon is an extraordinarily talented composer - and an absolute joy to work with! He is confident in his work, but has not a drop of "arrogant artist" in him - assuring that he will achieve the perfect composition for your needs without putting your blood pressure at risk. I have worked with him on many projects and love how he can capture different musical genres and emotional tones. Highest recommendation!
Documentary Series
Currently, I am a major contributing composer for the "Sanatione" documentary series about people's stories during the covid-19 pandemic. This is a unique project of filmmakers from across the world. All collaborations in this project are being done remotely. Here is a link to watch the episodes and to hear examples of my work!
