Shannon and The Clams vocalist Shannon Shaw has been drawn to Patsy Cline's smooth, sad, devastating voice since she was a small child and the songs on Patsy Cline's 12 Greatest Hits have had a huge impact on her own songwriting. The desperation in the storytelling, the songs' soaring bridges and choices in Cline's vocal delivery have provided a writing and performing template for Shaw. The album also had an profound effect on her personal life by providing an early source of artistic connection with her mother.

The new Shannon And The Clams album The Moon Is In The Wrong Place is out now.
