Victoria: You got your first guitar at age 9. What was the first song you learned?
Shane: I really can’t remember, but it was more than likely a worship song.

Victoria: How do you balance the demands of acting and singing?
Shane: Well, you know a lot of people ask me which direction I’m going to ultimately choose to go in, and my answer is always, “Why do I have to choose?” I really love both art forms and even though it gets busy, I’m finding a way to do both. I believe it’s possible and so I’m doing my best to make that happen.

Hollywood Dame Interview

Hollywood Dame has an EXCLUSIVE interview with Shane. He talks about writing music, who he'd like to work with, getting recognized by fans & more!

When did you first realize you had an interest in music and what sparked that interest?
I’ve always loved music and I grew up singing in church. I started doing worship for a special needs Sunday school class when I was about 12.

How did you break into the music industry?
I was contacted through a friend to meet with Adam Anders. Adam had listened to my original songs and covers on my music MySpace and he offered me a music development deal.

How would you describe the sound of your music, and what makes you feel like your album is different from the other artists in your genre?
I think it has mostly an acoustic-pop vibe-kind of Jason Mraz meets Justin Timberlake. As far as distinction goes, there are so many talented artists and each one is unique because we all have different personalities that we put into our music and performances. Besides that fact, I am also a professional dancer and I think that adds to my performance capability.

What are some of your plans for promoting your music – do you plan on doing some touring?
Right now I’m just getting my music out there and hope that people respond well. I would absolutely love to tour as soon as possible.

Musically speaking, what are some of your short term and long term goals you have lined out for yourself? What are your hopes for the upcoming year?
This year for sure I would like to complete my full length album and then at least be in consideration for opening for someone amazing on tour! A long-term goal for music would be to have a Platinum Record on my wall, of course! haha And then just to keep making music that touches people and makes people feel things…for the rest of my life.

Lyrically speaking, where do your song inspirations come from? Is it easy for you to sit down and write lyrics, or is it a bit of a challenge sometimes?
I write music with my guitar in hand and usually when I feel inspired, it flows pretty quickly. I might have to go back and refine it and work it a bit but it is pretty much all there at the beginning. I write about things I feel and things I have experienced. Occasionally there are particular people attached to a song, but I won’t share that part. lol

Who are some of your musical interests and influences?
I grew up listening to Steven Curtis Chapman. His was the first concert I ever went to. Justin Timberlake really influenced me early on…. very inspiring.

Who are some artists you’d like to work with?
Oh my gosh so many- but a few off the top of my head are Jason Mraz, Jon Foreman, Phil Collins….oh and Miley Cyrus!

What is the experience like to be out somewhere and be recognized by a fan?
Honestly, it’s so humbling and such a blessing.

Besides music, what are some of your other interests and hobbies?
Well, acting is another thing that is close to my heart. Ideally, I would love to incorporate my music in a theatrical feature film in some way. There is a Warner Brothers film coming out this summer called “Flipped”, where I was able to do just a bit of music as well as acting. It was so fun and I’d like to do more of that for sure. Other than the entertainment industry, most people don’t know that I attained my black belt in Kempo Karate when I was 13 years old. Even though I don’t continue in that training, the martial arts will always interest me. I spend a lot of time with my family. We like to take walks and go on bike rides and just hang out.

Associated Content Interview

Associated Content has an interview with Shane, he talks about how he got into music, his musical inspirations, balancing acting & music, and more!

Here's an excerpt from the interview, and read the rest here!

How would you describe your sound?

My sound is very acoustic pop-kind of the groove of Jason Mraz with the tight pop flare of Justin Timberlake or Jesse McCartney.

You are also a dancer- you were on "Dance On Sunset" on Nickelodeon and in "High School Musical 2." How did you get into dancing and will you be incorporating dance into your music?

My older sister Samantha began dancing when she was 2 and I basically grew up in the dance studio. One day, when I was 9, the owner of the studio and my mom encouraged me to jump into a class. I started training about 20 hours a week and competing in dance. I was actually scouted by a talent agent at a local dance competition. I definitely always plan to incorporate dance in my music, but I don't feel like I always have to be dancing in order to express myself with my music. I can sit down with my acoustic guitar and sing a song, and that can be enough for me!

Los Angeles celebrates life, love

If you knew someone who was quietly suffering, would you help them?
If you had something to say, and you knew the world would listen, would you speak up?

Hollywood’s hottest, young celebrities answered YES to these questions, and used their status to get the world to listen at Inspire Magazine’s charity event, “Inspire A Little Love,” benefiting To Write Love on Her Arms...


Shane Harper, of Disney’s “Good Luck Charlie,” and soon to be seen in the upcoming Rob Reiner film, “Flipped,” explained how the loss of his cousin to suicide affected his life. “It took us all by surprise,” he said. “I feel like we need to be more open with what’s going on in our life and not be scared to tell family and friends what we’re going through.” Most importantly, Shane says, “I want kids to know that there are people out there who want to talk to them, that people genuinely care. They need to know that they can express their feelings and what they’re going through, and that they’re not going to be judged.”
