After serving eight years in the U.S. Army Airborne Infantry Division, singer-songwriter Shawn Mullins left in 1991 to pursue music full-time. Possessing a warm, earthy voice and an everyman perspective, the Georgia-born artist has since released nearly 20 albums, many of them independently.
Best known for the 1998 hit song “Lullaby,” Mullins has a deep catalog of folk, Americana and roots songs that find truth and beauty in the commonplace.
