Shanna in a Dress and Megan Burtt

Live Performance and Songwriting Workshop Information

Shanna in a Dress

Concert: Friday, April 19, 7-9PM

Shanna in a Dress is your quirky best friend who refuses to wear pants. She says what everyone has felt but no one else will say and you'll get an uncensored journey of clever humor and heartbreak, extreme candor, and a hefty side of entertainment at her shows. This witty wordsmith is known for taking you on an emotional roller coaster, sometimes within the same song. Think John Prine mixed with Ingrid Michaelson with a twist of Phoebe Buffay from Friends all wrapped up in a sweet voice accented by guitar, piano, and ukulele. Most recently, Shanna in a Dress was the winner of the Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Songwriting Contest and performed with a full band at the 2023 Rocky Mountain Folks Fest. In 2020 alone, Shanna was a winner in the Kerrville New Folk competition, winner of the Great River Folk Fest Song Competition, a finalist at Songwriter Serenade, and a Grassy Hill Emerging Artist at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival

Megan Burtt

Concert: Saturday, April 20, 7-9PM

Megan Burtt is a performing songwriter. She has played music on almost every continent, summited Mt. Kilimanjaro and survived a gluten free diet for a decade now. She and Oprah share the same enneagram number. She wishes she’d learned music in a Southern Gospel church and dreams of becoming an olive farmer in Spain. And, you never know, life is a long time.. and longing is a great source of inspiration. Megan is working on her latest full-length record with singles set to release in fall 2023. She is a member of the all red-head Americana band Gingerbomb (eat your heart out). Megan is the winner of the Kerrville, Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Songwriter and Denver Westword Songwriting Competitions and a finalist in the Mountain New Song, Telluride Bluegrass, Great American Song Contest and Songwriter Serenade Songwriting Competitions.
