专辑简介

I was first introduced to Shelby Stone at MusicFest in 2025. The second she started singing on stage I knew she was going to become something big in not just the Texas music scene, but the music scene in general. Her sound has both rock and country tones to it and her voice is quite literally one that could read a menu and you would hire her. But perhaps what is most remarkable about her is her charisma and charm. Whether it be on stage or in an interview, Shelby has a presence that leaves you wanting more.

I was fortunate enough to sit down with her in Bryan, Texas, after her show for the Pre-Party at Troubadour Fest. She performed at the Palace Theater in downtown Bryan, opening up for American Aquarium. For those in the crowd who did not know her before, they definitely left being fans of hers. I even watched the girl next to me look her up after her set!

Growing up in Texas, outside of the DFW area, music was part of her life at a young age. “I started on the worship team, which I feel like is how everyone starts out,” Shelby said. She first started singing in eighth grade and “once they learn you can sing, you are on every worship team.” She got her first guitar in junior high from a guy who at the time was selling it, but for Shelby he gave it to her for free. “I taught myself how to play every song I could. When I got to college (at UT Arlington) I worked for the radio station the Ranch and saw that my dream was attainable. I could play shows that were actually in my reach.” It was then she realized that she did not want to be a nurse anymore, music was going to be her career.
