Born in Michigan, saxophonist Shelby grew up in Detroit where he began playing violin at nine years old. It wasn¡¯t until the age of thirteen, that Shelby would hear the sweet sounds of George Howard which led him to appreciate other jazz musicians, including Everette Harp, Marion Meadows, David Sanborn, Gerald Albright, Najee, John Coltrane, and of course Charlie Parker. Shelby first hit the airwaves in 2003 with Miracle, since then Shelby has been polished and his new CD No Boundaries is definitely worthy of an audience. As of recently Shelby is the proud endorsee of Rillion Reeds & Wisemann Saxophones. Look for his new line of Sax's the Shelby Brown series in the near furture. Currently Shelby is working on his new CD The Meaning of Life scheduled to be released in the spring of next year.
