I am Tawanna Shaunte, a vocalist/songwriter, producer, and podcaster committed to inspiring audiences through unique musical experiences. Since I was a youngster, I have been intrigued by diverse people, conversations, and heartfelt music. I was born and raised in Florence, Mississippi, which I warmly refer to as rural peace and the muddy magnolia state. Historically, Mississippi is known for its painful civil rights era; however, on the other hand, it places its people in a unique position to understand what it means to struggle and eventually become triumphant.

 “My life experiences have impacted my musical style and made me a more creative, thoughtful, and socially conscious artist committed to infusing inspiration, history, and cultural storytelling into my music. Consequently, I have worked with some of the world’s most incredible and brilliant artists. I invite you to stream, download, subscribe, and join this amazing community as a Freedom Agent: individuals willing to break down barriers and catalyze positive change. And together, we can transform our world.”
