His global audience extends to the hundreds of millions, and he has shared the stage with international superstars The Weeknd, Shawn Mendes, The Chainsmokers and Camila Cabello amongst others.

Then, in 2020, Shawn released his debut single “I Don’t Wanna Dance”. A multiple JUNO Award-nominated artist with hundreds of millions of streams worldwide to his name, Shawn has collaborated with some of the industry’s biggest hit songwriters.

He is best known for tracks “Sound Of Your Heart” and “Reminding Me” with Vanessa Hudgens, which have become Double Platinum and Platinum-certified.
