This is The Unstoppable Singer and we’re interviewing the remarkable Shelli Frances! Raised in Central California, Shelli started belting out songs from the backyard cherry tree at age 3. After singing in church with a Christian folk band for 2 years, Shelli began singing professionally at age 21. She has since developed an incredible vocal range and sings in a dizzying array of styles and genres, from sultry jazz, to powerhouse vocals for rock, pop, country and dance music.
Classically trained as a teen, Shelli has performed extensively over the years both onstage and in the recording studio. She has appeared with various bands for casinos, corporate shows, private parties, and nightclubs. As a well seasoned and versatile performer, she also had her own San Diego-based contemporary & classic rock cover band called Firefly. Danielle LoPresti of the San Diego IndieFest calls Shelli “gracious, beautiful, radiant and humble, all the while exuding the brilliance of a constellation on stage. Shelli Frances is all of this and more. She is, simply put, remarkable.”
