Artist History Shelly has been playing the guitar since age 5. “When I was younger, I used it as my emotional crutch. I ran to it when I needed an emotional outlet.” When she was 17, she earned a scholarship to the prestigious Berklee College of Music, and had the pleasure of attending Berklee the same time John Mayer and Bleu (Aware Records) did.
