About
With her rich songwriting and powerful vocal abilities, Shannen Wick is reminiscent of the energetic queens of soul music past. Known as the leading lady and founder of Fulton Street, Shannen is a key player in the thriving Melbourne soul music scene. Starting her singing career at a young age in the National Children's Choir, Shannen went on to study under the guidance of vocal coach extraordinaire Tania G Vocal Artistry, performing at venues such as Ormond Hall and Chapel Off Chapel. In 2012, Shannen founded Fulton Street. As a singer-songwriter and manager, she has gone on to lead the band through thriving residencies and successful shows at Melbourne's most iconic live music venues. Fulton Street has received radio play on Triple J, ABC and PBS and played at festivals such as Riverboats Festival, Moomba Festival, Boogie Festival, Tasmanian Wine Festival, Caloundra Music Festival, Brunswick Music Festival, St Kilda Festival, Melbourne Music Week, Stonnington Jazz Festival, as well as Bluesfest sideshow support slots. In 2019, Shannen started her own independent record label, Stoic Records, with long-term band member and friend Jamie Stroud. Stoic Records is devoted to promoting diverse voices from across the community, having eight releases under their belt from artists such as Lauren Brydie, Mama T, Dive Team 5 and Yirgjhilya. 2024 marked a career highlight for Shannen, with the release of her debut solo single ‘Love Dressed Down’, which received multiple international nominations for Best Music Video. That same year also saw the highly anticipated release of Fulton Street’s sophomore album ‘Hard Truths’ and Shannen’s appearance on The Voice Australia Season 13. In 2026, Shannen further expanded her career as a touring vocalist, joining Australian rock band Ocean Alley as a backing vocalist on their national touring schedule. She also toured the UK and France as the lead vocalist for Cookin On 3 Burners, bringing her powerful soul and funk vocals to audiences across Europe.
