You have to work for what you want! Shelley

Nothing has ever come easy for Canadas brightest new R&B talent, Shelley, proving every step along the way that she has the passion, talent, and determination to make it in the music industry. Singing since the age of 6 in school choirs and already a die-hard Mariah Carey fan, Shelleys natural ability and desire to sing shaped her destiny as a stage performer much sooner than she expected. By the age of 8 she landed her first gig performing on national television with Raffi on CBCs the Rita McNeil show. Practicing and learning every Mariah Carey song for hours alone in her room, Shelley not so quietly continued to develop her talent and it soon became much more than just her personal secret. I remember when I was 12 (years old), my family forced me out of my room to sing a solo at a large family gathering. I sang Mariah Careys Hero and everyone loved it. Shelley recalls, It was a turning point for me, I realized that singing is not only something I love to do, but that I can do.

Fueling her passion with a new determination Shelley began vocal lessons to match the power of her idols Mariah and Whitney, and started writing her own songs with vocal coach, Lorraine Lawson, coach of the Canadian Idol camps. Shelleys training, performances, and feedback from competitions such as 93.5 the FLOWs Soul Search and the Canadian Idol auditions have all been lessons that have shaped her signature style. Its a combination of all my inspirations, Mariah Careys insanely strong voice, Alicia Keys songwriting, and Beyonces confidence, describes Shelley.

The first single, Crazy For You speaks volumes about the young artists ambitions. The message of the song is something I really believe. Nothing comes for free, if its worth it you have to work for it. Written and recorded with Juno award winning artist, Belly, Shelley recalls the studio session, Working with Belly was great, hes a really cool guy. We talked about the song, wrote down some ideas and recorded it. It was a really fun and natural process.

Always with a pen in hand, Shelley is continuously writing and working on new material for her next big hit. Every opportunity I get Im thinking about a new song idea or lyric that I want to write, even when Im silent my friends and family askWhat song is playing (in my head)? Shelley explains.

Shelley is the most recent addition to the Awesome Music roster, Canadas top independent label on the Billboard 2009 Year-End Canadian Hot 100 and home to international recording artists Cascada and September.
