WOODBRIDGE TOWNSHIP PRESENTS SHAWN MULLIN

Sunday, April 02, 2023 @ 7:00pm



Avenel Performing Arts Center
150 Avenel Street, Avenel, NJ 07001

Shawn Mullins is an American singer-songwriter who specializes in folk rock, instrumental rock, adult alternative, and Americana music. He is best known for the 1998 single “Lullaby”, which hit number one on the Adult Top 40 and was nominated for a Grammy Award. After a series of indie releases and growing buzz in the Atlanta music scene, Shawn Mullins’ critical and commercial breakthrough came when his 1998 release “Soul’s Core” shot him to fame followed by AAA/Americana No. 1 hit “Beautiful Wreck” from 2006’s 9th Ward Pickin’ Parlor.

His song, “Shimmer” was used in promotion of the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney and was included on the Dawson’s Creek soundtrack. His co-write “All in My Head” from 2008’s Honeydew was featured in episode one of the hit TV sitcoms “Scrubs.” Mullins also co-wrote the Zac Brown Band’s No. 1 country tune “Toes.”

In early 2002, he formed super group The Thorns with Matthew Sweet and Pete Droge.

“No Blue Sky” from the resulting album, is a modern-day classic. For the 20th anniversary of his breakthrough album, Shawn revisited the music of Soul’s Core by recording two new versions of the album. He calls this Soul’s Core Revival. This is not a remix or a remaster of the original, but rather brand-new recordings with new arrangements of the songs – one album is stripped down solo performances, some on guitar, some on piano and maybe one a cappella and the second is a new studio recording with his full band, Soul Carnival.

Woodbridge Township presents Shawn Mullins at The Avenel Performing Arts Center with support from Woodbridge Arts.
