His vocals were featured on recent projects by Nicholas Krolak (Voice Equals Power, Outside In Records) and Paul Giess (Hymns: Vol. 1, Ropeadope Records,) among a myriad feature vocal appearances.

Shayne will be joined by their Director of Youth Programs, Christine Petrini and some of the students from the Lyceum Studio! Ms Petrini is a singer, actor, songwriter/lyricist, and teaching artist.
