“It was surreal looking out amongst the audience and seeing so many people who are so dear to me,” shares Shelburne. “Taylorsville, Kentucky will always be my home. It felt more like a family reunion mixed with high school friends, church members, and everyone in between. Thank you to everyone who came out to the show and for buying my new album. Also, thank you to each one of the sponsors for making this whole event possible.”
Shelburne kicked off 2020 with the release of the album’s first single, “Straight From Kentucky.” Shortly after the single was available, the live entertainment industry came to a screeching halt. Although the year was full of twists and turns, Shelburne was determined to stay connected with his fans and ultimately released “Church Pew Bar Stool” and “Bottoms Up Sundown,” which are both featured on the album. Shelburne has been a force in the music industry, with features from CMT, GAC, People, Newsmax, and NBC, and his busy tour schedule proves his fans always want more. He graced the cover of the 2020 Kentucky Tourism Visitor’s Guide which shares travel tips, stories, and regional highlights for tourists and visitors. With the easing of pandemic restrictions, the Kentucky native and new father is ready to hit the road. After building close bonds with fans through live virtual performances during quarantine, he has announced several upcoming tour dates including Sunday, July 18th at LIVE ON THE LAWN at Louisville’s Waterfront Park where he will open for ZZ Top and Black Stone Cherry! Shelburne has a lot in store for the upcoming months that country music fans will not want to miss!
