Post Description

After a year long solo tour following the release of Revelation Road, Shelby Lynne releases her first live recording Shelby Lynne Live. The CD was recorded Live at McCabe’s during a sold out two night stand on May 19, 2012. A few miles from the beach in Santa Monica, McCabe’s Guitar Shop has been serving the musician community for over 50 years. On the weekends they clear out the back- room, set up folding chairs and present concerts with some of the finest players you’ll ever see.
Lynne’s tells stories out front of several of these simple performances, putting the tunes even more in context and making them even more personal.
Before singing “I’ll Hold Your Head”, she explains that she, her mom and her little sister (Allison Moorer) learned to sing three-part harmony while driving to school each morning in rural southern Alabama. The performance of the tune is absolutely masterful—a vocal delivery that swoops and swings, rich in tone and conversational just when it has to be. When she sings “C’mon, Sissy, let’s close the door / Don’t want to hear the noise no more”, it’s plain that she is singing about the alcohol behind her parents’ tragic marriage, and the song’s title makes even more sense than when you first heard it.
