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 

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,

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:
