Known for her pervasive style a soul-grunge frontwoman turned piano songstress, Shaina Shepherd's notable vocal stylings have brought her into various creative spaces — from collaborating with Duff McKagan, members Soundgarden and Heart's own Nancy Wilson to sharing stages with rock stars like Modest Mouse to being a soloist with the classical ensembles around the country. Inspired by the parallels between gospel and garbage metal, Shepherd is embarking on a national tour equipped with storytelling chops and penchant for rock and roll glamour. Living in the city where both Pearl Jam and Quincy Jones cut their teeth, Shaina lends her soulful voice to projects of all genres. Her heart songs are steeped in American folk and redefine the Outlaw genre with an infusion of Tina Turner, Betty DAvis and Nina Simone. She has recently been featured in Nordstrom's holiday campaign with her release of "Never Be Another You", played a KEXP in session, and is excited to premiere her first body of work "dearly departed' on the road as a celebration of life yet to live.
