Episode 234: Shannon Shaw of Shannon and the Clams

Shannon Shaw and I go super deep on this week’s episode as she talks to me about the tragic loss of her partner, Joe Haener, almost two years ago, just prior to their wedding date. This unimaginably horrible accident formed the basis of the new and absolutely wonderful Shannon and the Clams album, The Moon Is In The Wrong Place. This is a sad yet hopeful conversation about the power of music and performance to heal, the profound and enduring qualities of grief (and how to manage it), and the quixotic juxtaposition of Nature which shows us lessons we can all learn in order to truly value the brief but wonderful life we all have the opportunity to live. This is one of the most precious, touching, sad, and yet hopeful conversations I’ve had on Roadcase, and Shannon demonstrates strength, resolve, resilience, gratitude, and an enduring human spirit that can serve as an example for us all.  And… the new album is truly an amazing GEM!!  This is one for all-time, and I’m so incredibly honored to share it with you!!For more information on Roadcase: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  [email protected] theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
