Biography:
Here is my bio. I’m Shelly and I’m from Mississippi. I grew up in a town called Clinton, about five miles west of Jackson, Mississippi, but I live in Nashville at the moment. I sing. I write songs. I record the songs that I write, and sometimes songs that I don’t write. I’ve loved music since I can remember loving anything. I’ve been influenced by everyone from…Madonna to Dolly Parton, Joni Mitchell to Janis Joplin, Elton John to Elvis, aerosmith to Lauren Hill, Stevie Wonder to Patti Griffin.
