Growing up in Durban, Shaun P developed a love for music at the tender age of 11 when he started playing the piano. With the support of his mother Shaun P not only crafted his talent for musical instruments, but pursued singing as well. It was during his teen years that he realised a career in music was what he dreamed of, showing a distinct passion for the gospel genre in particular.

In the early nineties, Shaun joined the group Not Just to People. His first recording with the group garnered him a SAMA nomination for best “Urban Gospel” in 2006. Over the years Shaun P has worked with the best in the music industry, from which he attained professional standards and experienced music at an international level.

Shaun P was also the first person to lead thousands of people in worship at the brand new Moses Mabida Stadium at the Global Prayer Day event in 2010.

His latest album Everyday of My Life is a lyrical testimony of his life and aptitude; infusing many different genres and blurring the lines between traditional gospel and modern urban music. The album showcases Shaun P’s natural vocal talent as well as his songwriting abilities, delivering a universal sound with global appeal. The mix of up-beat urban and the more soulful gospel songs provide the album with a unique balance and an easy-listening feel that speaks to all ages.
