* GenreShift: Early in her career, Marshall’s music was raw, stripped-down indie rock. It then moved to a mixture of blues, [[CountryMusic country]], soul, and indie rock. ''Sun'' added electronica to the mix while downplaying the blues-country-soul part of her sound.

Charlyn Marie "Chan" ([[ItIsPronouncedTroPAY pronounced "Shawn"]]) Marshall (born January 21, 1972) is a Southern-bred woman. Her family moved frequently. This constant travelling helped prepare Marshall for the touring life she would have as a musician. Marshall is known for having unpolished live shows, with songs beginning and ending abruptly or blending into one another without clear transitions. She has also cut short performances without explanation.

Added DiffLines:

* ExecutiveMeddling: Attempted with ''Wanderer''. Matador, Marshall's label since 1996, outright rejected the album, along with her recalling an incident where an executive suggested that the album sound like ''25'' by Music/{{Adele}}. Marshall instead put the album through Domino unaltered, save for the addition of "Woman", a song generally regarded as a TakeThat towards Matador.
** Played straight with ''[[NewSoundAlbum Sun]]''. The more electronic sound of the album was at the behest of Matador Records, who wanted a more commercial album. The end result was her first album that charted in the Top 10.
