Growing up in North Queensland, Shaunyl Benson had always had a love for the guitar from a young age. Being greatly influenced by Dallas Green and Laura Marling, her folky acoustic song writing and unique vocal tone brought her into the world of performing. Currently in her second year studying a Bachelor's Degree in Popular Music, Shaunyl is focusing on self-recording her first "real" EP to be released in late July of this year. Being young and based on the Gold Coast, Shaunyl plays all kinds of shows all over the city, from jamming on the beach to music festivals in a park. Having a such a great love for traveling, Shaunyl is hoping to finish her degree and travel the world, with her guitar in hand and share her music with everyone.
