The Singers divorced in August 2000 after a ten-year marriage during which they had shared the care of three children, with James being the primary wage earner and Shannon being the primary homemaker.

 The Thresher Online: Blind Melon (February 21, 1997)
On the day that Nirvana's Kurt Cobain died, lead singer Shannon Hoon of Blind Melon appeared on the "Late Show" with a question mark painted on his head to symbolize the uncertainty of life.

A partial answer to that question was provided last November when the surviving members of the group, led by guitarist Christopher Thorn, compiled out-takes, demos and informal recordings of Hoon's singing, added their own background instrumentation and released the compilation as a tribute to Hoon's career and as a gift to those who remembered him.
