THE ARTIST:

   100,000 miles in two years! Fitting description of a trucker 
or a traveling gypsy, and I guess Scott Shelby is a bit of both, 
but primarily he is singer/songwriter. 
Touring around the South Central U.S. with a 5 piece band and 
across the nation solo acoustic, he has opted to create his career
the hard way…on his own. One radio station, one venue, one performance, 
and one fan at a time. And it’s finally taking shape!
   Growing up in the churches and coffee houses of Texoma-Land, 
Scott watched his mother and grandfather singing Gospel and playing 
songs written by Patsy Cline, Doug Stone, Merle Haggard, CCR, Garth, 
Seger and others of the like. Unknown to himself or his relatives, 
Scott was absorbing it all like a sponge and cataloging it somewhere inside.
   Fast forward past the times where Scott would sneak in to his parents 
room and steal his father’s guitar from out of the closet, past the bloody, 
tired fingers, past the awkward fledgling songs trying to take flight, 
past the years of teeth cutting at open mics and coffee houses, past 
the independent record releases, past the countless auditions, past 
the years of touring, past the Texas A&M and Oklahoma State education and see Scott where he is now, 
driving cross-country to another show in his 150,000 mile old rig!

   Now, an artist in his own right, Scott travels the states performing 
his own style of music that he describes as “American Alternative Country.” 
A Scott Shelby Live show is truly a dynamic experience. One moment reckless
rock, and the next an intimate acoustic pin drop moment. 
While most of his performances these days are backed by his melody-driven band, 
you can still find him by himself on a stool with a guitar or keys getting back
to the basics. 
“In whatever case”, Shelby quotes his Idol Sean McConnell, “It’s all about 
the song. That never changes. It always starts with an acoustic guitar or piano
and a notepad. The lyrics are the point. The story is central.”

   These days, Scott has decided to set up shop in Pittsburgh, PA to focus 
on growing the regional following his fresh and authentic southern sound 
inspired thru years of touring, in hopes of finally emerging as a standout artist
with roots firmly planted on the East Coast!  

THE SONGWRITER:

   Stop and listen to any of Scott Shelby’s lyrics and you know a bit about him.
Listen to his albums and you will almost feel like family. Whether at his home 
office, in a hotel room, or in the passenger seat of his rig, Scott is always 
writing.
   Scott Shelby was born and raised in the small town of Denison, Texas, 
just North of the Dallas city limits & South of the Red River, and really learned
to write & play with his good friend Dustin Perkins. It is that upbringing 
and small town influence that Shelby credits toward allowing him to cultivate
his unique sound. 
   Shelby’s taste in music always swayed toward an alternative country-blues feel, 
but his true-to-life testimony of heartache, trials, triumph, and success 
are finding a home in country music!
