"Seeing Shelby Lynne perform to an intimate audience in Amsterdam's Paradiso was the closest I've been to having a religious experience... Overwhelmed by the presence and voice of blonde wisp of a thing, Lynne, I purchased the CD the very next day. I've been playing it for weeks and preaching it to anyone who will listen. Why? because it's thaaat good! From the country pop explosive opener Your Lies, and on to the sultry I'm Leavin' Lynne plows on through genres en textures on what is one of the best recent releases. Lynne muses over life after the relationship in I Thought it Would be Easier with low, sultry, emotive vocals and picks up the pace with bluesy rockers Gotta Get Back and Why Can't You Be. Absoulte highlights on "I Am Shelby Lynn" are dreamlike Dreamsome and Black Light Blue where Lynne's voice sweeps you up in her emotions. Shelby Lynne, I don't know where you've been, but I'll be watching very closely where you go!"

Shelby Lynne. Genius and Red Hot Mama

"Oh America, With your Golden Arches, your Kate Smiths, your Gas Guzzling SUVs and dependence on Foreign Oil. Why won't you embrace this Brillant Songstress from Alabama? You gave her a Grammy For best new artist after she'd been putting out music for years. She has no peer. No equal. I Am Shelby gave her the publicity. See her live, buy this CD. She's passionate, stunning. She'll move you and she'll groove you.
I want to marry her. She is-- America,
the only Bombshell we really need."
