That\u2019s right\u2026 She started when she was TWO at the Ann Arbor Blues Fest in 1969.   &amp;nbsp;   If you\u2019re a Classic Rocker, Shaun Murphy\u2019s voice is one you\u2019ve heard numerous times, but probably don\u2019t realize it. She\u2019s been recording with Bob Seger since 1972\u2019s Katmandu and started singing with him on the road in 1978. They\u2019re currently out on Bob\u2019s (farewell) Roll Me Away tour and we chatted about whether she thought she\u2019d be collaborating with Bob after the final bow and more. She also performed on Eric Clapton\u2019s \u201cBehind the Sun\u201d album and sang on that tour as well. Her voice is present on several songs, including the hit She\u2019s Waiting. During the tour, they played Live Aid, to over 100,000 people. Shaun was a member of Little Feat for 16 years, from 1993 through 2009. According to the band, her \u201cenergy and powerful, seasoned, bluesy vocalizations certainly upped the fun quotient for a recharged Little Feat.\u201d She\u2019s worked with Bruce Hornsby, Joe Walsh, Glenn Frey, The Moody Blues, John Hiatt, Herbie Hancock, Phil Collins, Maria Muldaur, Michael Bolton and Alice Cooper to name a few. Shaun also fronts her own band: The Shaun Murphy Band. Her solo material has been nominated for three Grammys and has won multiple blues awards. In short, Shaun has seen more of the evolution of the music business than most people, and after it all she\u2019s still one of the kindest people you\u2019ll ever encounter.
