Shaun's music collaborations

 

Hello and welcome to my music web page, located in a faraway world where visitors are few - well 124 in the year (spring 2024-spring 2025), including bots!

My name is Shaun Dugan and for the past ten or so years I have had the privilege of collaborating with musicians, vocalists, and song-writers from around the world, writing, recording and producing some songs in various styles. This site makes a selection of these songs available for people to listen to. Each song page has audio, some artwork, lyrics, and my personal take on the songs, and their influences.

I hope to keep expanding the site, but it depends largely on the ongoing cost of having the site hosted, as well as writing more material, so it may only be on the web for a while. 

I hope you enjoy your visit, and do feel free to browse and listen to the songs!

Best wishes,

Shaun
