Shawn Brush has been offering some amazing music for over five decades. He is an award-winning songwriter and plays various types of music like roots music, Americana, bluegrass, county, jazz, and more.

 Shawn Brush is one of those rare musicians who's able to combine  highly technical musicianship with memorable and impactful songwriting. He's  won two Central Canadian Bluegrass Awards and has worked alongside  Fred J.  Eaglesmith, Natalie MacMaster, Ray Materick and Sherry Kean to name a few.  Shawn's music is passionate, heartfelt and has a unique ability to touch pretty much anyone listening. 

Early on in life Shawn was inspired by such greats as Willie Nelson,  Johnny Cash, John Prine and bluegrass legend Bill Monroe. He began playing  the guitar at the age 14 and after attending a bluegrass jam in Hamilton Ont.  Shawn felt something had changed in him forever. He became devotedly focused and entirely serious about his passion for music. As his music  developed Shawn spent the summers traveling from one bluegrass festival to  another, from Northern Ontario to Nashville Tennessee. 

Not long after, while taking part in a local bluegrass jam Shawn found  himself profoundly moved. He felt something had changed in him forever. In  high school, Shawn took it upon himself to sneak into the local bars in order  to trade licks with the older and more experienced musicians around town.  Soon he was getting booked regularly into these same establishments as it  became readily apparent he was something of a musical prodigy.
