Shelley Barratt writes, sings and plays music from the contemporary heart. Melodic and poetic, Shelley’s songs are unconventional, yet middle-of-the-road accessible, crossing genres with indie-pop and folk-rock, singer-songwriter acoustic, Celtic, Latin and other international influences. Shelley’s voice has a soothing effect, offering a rare level of intimacy to the listener. Besides writing songs that have received acclaim in the Billboard World Song Contest, Fame Games ‘Reviewers Picks’ and more, her music has piqued the interest of dancers, authors and visionaries. Shelley has collaborated with artists of all kinds, and has performed at many different festivals and venues from Nashville to San Jose. A child of the southwest, Shelley sang lead with the regionally-known band, Sub Culture. She has hosted acoustic and women’s showcases, has drummed and sang back-up for various artists in many locales, and has created music for modern dance, special occasions and visual media. Shelley currently resides in her home town of Albuquerque, NM, where she continues to write, record, and perform live with the Shelley Barratt Band. Writing with part instinct and part intuition, Shelley’s songs draw comparisons from Joni Mitchell to Madonna, Loreena McKennitt to Dan Fogelberg, The Eagles to Sarah McLachlan, Sheryl Crow to Peter Gabriel. "Good groove. Cool imagery, theme," –Billboard; “The powerful combination musically and lyrically creates a sound that is truly unique and refreshing. Barratt’s music provides a breath of fresh air,” –GoGirls Music; "Shelley's music has merit overall but what makes her distinct is her songwriting… catchy rock-pop-folk tunes… blissful… rhythmic… curious,” –IMG Music; “I am enjoying the CD and hope to see more of your work on the market soon. All the best,” –Terry Brooks, Author; “You sing with your heart. Nothing under the heavens can stop that,”
–Henderson Jones, Filmmaker.
