Shelby Stone w/ The Gray Jays

Globe Hall Presents Shelby Stone with The Gray Jays on Wednesday, June 24th. - KITCHEN OPENS AT 5PM!
Cut from the backdrop of the iconic Fort Worth Stockyards, Shelby Stone is part of a new generation of artists reshaping the Red Dirt and Americana landscape, not through viral moments or industry shortcuts, but by building something real from the ground up. Raised in Decatur, TX, Stone blends hard-edged rock and roll with emotionally raw songwriting, delivering a sound that feels both familiar and entirely her own.
What separates Stone is not just the music, but the way she has chosen to build her career. Completely independent, with no label or publishing deal, she has leaned into a direct-to-fan approach that prioritizes connection over convenience. Her debut album Silveryear was released first as a physical and direct digital product in August 2025, moving through its first vinyl pressing in under an hour. The decision to delay streaming until April 2026 was intentional, a statement about valuing the listener and rewarding the fans who showed up early.
Produced by Dalton Domino and P.H. Naffah, Silveryear captures the full spectrum of Stone’s artistry. The record moves effortlessly between sharp, driving rock moments and stripped-down, unguarded songwriting, tied together by a voice that never wavers. An album rooted in survival, self-reflection, and reinvention, it is not just a debut, but rather a foundation.
Stone’s rise has been driven by the stage. Since her first show in 2020, she has developed a reputation as a commanding live performer, capable of holding a room with the intensity of a seasoned veteran. That presence has translated into real momentum, including sold-out multi-night runs, an expanding national touring footprint, and slots at some of the most respected festivals in the space, including Luck Reunion, Mile 0 Fest, Born and Raised, Texas Music Revolution, and Steamboat Music Festival.
At the core of everything is the fan. Stone’s philosophy is simple: think like a fan and treat the listener like a real person by giving them something worth holding onto.
The admiration she has garnered from Americana icons such as Robert Earl Keen, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Cross Canadian Ragweed, and Turnpike Troubadours speaks to both her authenticity and the respect she has earned within the Texas and Red Dirt community. Shelby Stone is not just another new name in Texas music, but an artist carving out her own lane, built on honesty, work ethic, and a deep understanding of what it takes to earn an audience. With Silveryear out now on streaming platforms, and an audience growing by the show, she stands on the edge of a breakout moment built entirely on her own terms
