Some say Shelby Spalione is the next Gwen Stefani or Fefe Dobson, but if you ask Shelby herself who she would compare herself to, she thinks differently. "I don't think I'm like any other artist and I'm not gonna be the next anyone. I'm original and unique." Shelby is right about that. She is extremely different, and you will figure that out immediatley when you sit down to talk to her. She is all about having fun and being herself, which is also what her six song EP, Criss Cross Applesauce emphasizes. So how did Shelby's singing career begin?
At the age of 5, Shelby would always perform the song "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion for her family at special get-togethers. One family member in particular, her great aunt, noticed her talent and encouraged her to follow her dream. By the time the young star was 9 years old, she had performed in many plays at the local theatre, and won the crown of Little Miss Stevenson Ranch. Once she turned 12, she began attending School of Pop where she met two time Grammy nominee and songwriter (Jojo, Fantasia) Alex Cantrall, who she studies performing, image, and vocal technique with. That same year, she also met producer/engineer/songwriter Dave Carlock (P!nk, Blink-182)--the Grammy Award certificate winner who discovered her true talent and wrote and produced Criss Cross Applesauce for Shelby. She also receives vocal training from Billy Purnell. Now, almost 14 years old, Shelby is still working hard to achieve her dream.
"When I see a stage and other people performing, I'm ALWAYS dying to get up on the stage and perform, too! But I always think of things I would do differently." Shelby Spalione isn't your typical popstar, singer, or girl. She has her own unique style, a style that will go far.
