Shelby Lynne (born Shelby Lynn Moorer, October 22, 1968, Quantico, Virginia) is an American singer and songwriter. The success of her 1999 album I Am Shelby Lynne led to her winning the Grammy Award for Best New Artist, even though she had, by that time, been active in the music industry for some time. She released a Dusty Springfield tribute album called Just a Little Lovin' in 2008. Since then she has started her own independent record label, called Everso Records, and released three albums: Tears, Lies and Alibis, Merry Christmas, and Revelation Road. Lynne is also known for her distinctive contralto voice.
Starting out as a mainstream country singer, earning a degree of commercial success, peer respect and critical acclaim while chafing against the Nashville system, Lynne took control of her career and began making music on her own terms, reemerging as a hard-rocking, guitar-slinging blonde singer/songwriter with a knack for bluesy rock `n' roll and emotionally raw balladry. The Definitive Collection presents 19 stunning highlights drawn from Shelby Lynne's decade and a half, nine album career.
