Shawn Phillips - Serving Others

On 21st of July 2007 I was awarded my 
full seagoing NSRI crew members badge, 
by my ex-Coxswain Bruce Irvine, who is now the Deputy 
Station Commander. It is something I am extremely 
proud of, as it took 3 years to earn it, and very 
complex training.
 
I'm proud to be a part of this organization. 
 
 
Since this is a volunteer organization, and receiving 
no funding whatsoever from the South African 
Government, we are dependent on the generosity of 
those who are cognizant of the importance of the work 
we do. So even if you are reading this on my site, and 
you have no idea who the hell I am, I urge you, if you 
are of comfortable means, to donate whatever you can 
to this cause. There is no price you can put on the 
saving of a single life. Visit the NSRI website to see 
how many lives are saved through the efforts of these 
dedicated people. Thank you.  I wish you Health, Love, 
and Clarity,  Shawn Phillips

Phillips is a rock pioneer. Keeping true to his roots in folk music, he experimented with classical, fantasy iconography, surreal verse, mysticism and voice. The results produced the multi-million selling album "Second Contribution." Four of his 18 albums charted on Billboard's top 100. Four singles charted on Billboard's top 40. Celebrating 40 years of recording and touring, Universal Music honored Phillips with a Lifetime Achievement Award in Johannesburg, South Africa on August 23, 2002.

Signifying the strength of his fan base, No Category, Phillips 18th studio album was a result of fans going to this website where they donated the money to cover the recording costs. Yanni acknowledged that Phillips was one of his favorite artists, and Alanis Morissette sat front row at a recent concert. Jon Bream, music critic for the Minneapolis Star Tribune identified Phillips as the "Godfather of New Age."  To learn more about Shawn Phillips surf www.shawnphillips.com To schedule an interview or receive press materials please contact:

“The pleasures of fishing, daydreaming, sunset watching and star counting, the leisure to take stock of one’s life without the surround-sound noise of the new wired century. In a cabin retreat pleasure overcomes duty for a little while.”
Writer Bill Holm
