"Shanna in a Dress combines witty, heartfelt songwriting with great musicianship guaranteed to deliver a memorable experience for anyone lucky enough to hear her. From the incredibly moving 'Daddy's Little Girl' to the super funny 'Mmm That's Hot' she hits home on every level, taking her listeners on a delightful roller coaster ride of laughter, tears, and everything in between." ~ Steve Seskin, Grammy-nominated songwriter
Fannin County, Texas -- What an appropriate quote to sum up Shanna's talent! Need we say more?? Shanna will be performing 'live' at Harmony House Concerts on Sunday, September 20, '26, 3-5 pm. Make reservations by calling 903-583-2661 and leaving your name, contact info (email addresses preferred), and the number of tickets you'd like. Reservations are $25 per person. Seating is limited, but we do keep a backup list for those wanting seats when a concert sells out. If you make a reservation and your plans change, call ASAP. NO-SHOWS are a big NO-NO! Reservations can be paid for at the concert, using cash or checks payable to Shanna Hoar (Uh-oh! The secret is out. Shanna didn't want to use that as her stage name, but who cares?) You are sure to become a 'Shanna Fanna' once you've experienced her original music and unique style. Shanna just released her newest CD, Sweet Spot, in May 2026.

Shanna will perform two 45-minutes sets with a 30-minute intermission between. You can graze from tables of delicious snacks. BTW: Guests are requested to bring finger food to share with others. Hosts, Faye & Scott, will provide bottomless cups of coffee, a variety of tea/punches, well water that will quench your thirst, and cheese trays with crackers, plus some other treats that will fill your tummy. An optional $1 cash donation can be made to help defray the hosts' expenses -- on a plate in the breakfast room!
Harmony House is located 10 miles north of Bonham, TX, and about 65 miles NE of Dallas Metroplex. Whether you are a 'newbie' or a well-seasoned guest, you will be met with a smile and a welcoming handshake or a bear hug (whichever you prefer). Our venue is located in a reclaimed vintage house that has a 'little house on the prairie' feel to it. Our setting is natural (thus, the name www.WildscapeAcres.com) and you'll go down a tree tunnel country (or is it County?) Road. When making a reservation, inform us if you need directions to our abode. We have been hosting the finest singer-songwriters from the USA, Canada, the UK, and Europe for over twenty years, and we've met some of the finest people on the planet. If you like, you can sign up for Harmony House Concerts Group on FB.
BIO...
A quirky singer-songwriter who will make you laugh, cry, and cry from laughing throughout her show.
Shanna in a Dress is your quirky best friend who refuses to wear pants. She says what everyone has felt but no one else will say and you'll get an uncensored journey of clever humor and heartbreak, extreme candor, and a hefty side of entertainment at her shows. This witty wordsmith is known for taking you on an emotional roller coaster, sometimes within the same song. Think John Prine mixed with Ingrid Michaelson with a twist of Phoebe Buffay from Friends all wrapped up in a sweet voice accented by guitar, piano, and ukulele. She's as real as it gets, as anyone who follows her on FB or Instagram knows. You'll never see Shanna do the same show twice. She's spontaneous and tailors her shows to what feels right in the moment. Shanna is also a life coach, and she can be contacted about that on her website.
