🌟 About the Artist:
Born in the bluegrass of Kentucky and raised on Wyoming’s high plains, Shelby Means is one of the foremost bassists in bluegrass, with nearly two decades of experience in bluegrass, folk, rock, Americana, and country outfits. Now based in Charleston, SC, during her tenure in Nashville she was a member of the GRAMMY nominated, incredibly impactful distaff bluegrass band, Della Mae. Throughout her career she has traveled to nearly 30 countries around the world spreading musical diplomacy.  Means is also one half of roots duo Sally &amp; George with her husband and collaborator, Sol

Means is a member of Molly Tuttle &amp; Golden Highway, with whom she gained her first GRAMMY win for their 2023 album, City of Gold. She’s also received more than a handful of awards from the International Bluegrass Music Association for her work with Della Mae and Golden Highway.

Means is a driving player with a deep pocket, a singular stage presence, and a magnetic,centered approach to the upright bass. Beyond her workon the instrument, she’s also an accomplished songwriter and a heartfelt vocalist whose voice is rooted in tradition while authentically her own. With her debut solo music, slated for release in 2025, Means invites listeners to experience the same soulful presence and adventurous spirit she has built her career on. Her singing and playing has been heard across the country and around the world, from NPR’s airwaves, the Grand Ole Opry, Bonnaroo, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, and Newport Folk to the U.S. Virgin Islands, Kazakhstan, Australia, and beyond.
