We send our condolences to all fans and family of the great Louisiana Music Icon G.G. Shinn this afternoon. Mr. Shinn was known as a blue-eyed soul/swamp-pop vocalist & trumpeter. He will forever be in our memories as a man who enjoyed playing for the people his awesome high vocal range and making people dance and smile in large crowds on many stages throughout the world.

It was a pleasure to have heard him play and to photograph him at times before and after a Festival or show in the Acadiana area. He always had a smile and was one of the most honest musicians I have had the honor of meeting. Rip Mr. Shinn and thank you for so many great memories that will forever live on in your music. Thank you for also being one amazing Louisiana Musician.
