The winner: Ms. Megan Crotty, who says of her connection with Shawn's music, "It was love at first listen. I love her unique voice.

To mark the release of Shawn Colvin's new Live album earlier this summer, Nonesuch Records teamed up with Martin Guitar to give away a brand-new X-Series guitar, signed by Shawn. Everyone who purchased a copy of the album from the Nonesuch Store by July 21 was eligible, and anyone who e-mailed in by that date asking to be added to the list was entered to win. The contest is now complete and we're happy to report the winner: Ms. Megan Crotty of Pleasant Garden, North Carolina.
Megan tells us her appreciation for Shawn's music goes all the way back to the singer/songwriter's earliest album, and it's always been a family affair. "I first got to know Shawn Colvin through my sister, Kim," Megan says. "She had Steady On. It was love at first listen. I love her unique voice. That, combined with the music and lyrics makes her one of my favorites."
In addition to the signed guitar, three runners-up were awarded a signed copy of the new Live CD. The album, recorded over three-nights at San Francisco's famous jazz club Yoshi's, features songs from Colvin's incredible two-decade career, including her Nonesuch debut, These Four Walls, as well as her take on songs by Robbie Robertson, Gnarls Barkley, and Talking Heads.
