Jenny Shawhan (from her website) – Showcasing at COMBO’s Songwriters Showcase on Nov. 18th
COMBO recently ran its 5th Annual Songwriting Contest where 19 songs were selected by our judges to be included on a compilation CD that is given out to music professionals all over the country. Those songwriters have been asked to showcase their songs during our Awards Ceremony which honors Colorado music-related businesses for their contributions to helping out musicians throughout the state. The Awards & Showcase Ceremonies will take place from 8:00 until 10:00 p.m. At 10:15, COMBO member and former award winning songwriter Jenny Shawhan (“Chasing May”, “Funkiphino”) will be showcasing original songs, including her new single “On She Goes”, backed by Joel Ashmore’s new band “Fifty Cent Friend” who will then continue the night’s entertainment to play some of your favorite cover tunes as well as many of their own award-winning originals. Terrific FUN band featuring COMBO memore Joel Ashmore on Bass. Come one, come all. Free! And since the Hard Rock Café is a full-restaurant, bring the family, enjoy dinner, and support our local songwriter/musicians!
