“On her 2007 release, Oceano, Shannon Bryant offers a tender tale of incredible voyages that course from familiar waters of the heart to distant shores of the mind.”
Brian Ball, Music Editor
“Oceano makes "Top Picks of November 2007" on CBC Radio.”
Mark Rheaume, CBC Radio
“This CD is a soulful and intelligently delightful swim in an
exquisite vocal experience. I feel well and all smiley faced about the musicianship and sometimes poignant and therapeutic lyrics."
James Cervantes, KWVA-Eugene, OR
"Oceano is a warm breeze blowing up from Brazil - relaxed, effortless, and hip.
The songs recall the best of the 60's bossa nova movement.
Bryant imbues the songs with a modern touch in the production.” (3˝ stars)
Les French, WMEB-Orono, ME
“Her calm and warm voice makes listening to her CD a nice Bossa experience. The interesting Indian touch of track 3 “Born Innocent” immediately proves how great Shannon’s musical range and skills are. Of course with track 5, the real Bossa comes out and one can enjoy the joyful sound even more. Just get this CD. You will love it more and more every time.”
Joost Van Steen, Jazz & Blues Tour Radio - The Netherlands
Embracing the essence of the bossa nova, Shannon Bryant’s melodies and lyrics sway like warm breezes and gentle, tropical waves”.
Sandra Klein, Marin Independent Journal
