RadioIndy is pleased to present Shelby Nelson with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Stars to Sail By" "Stars to Sail By" is an impressive British pop rock album from singer/songwriter Shelby Nelson. This album is organic by nature and combines an acoustic sound with electric, and elements of electronic. Put it all together and the album displays a great musical layering with the ambience often complimenting the solid arrangements. What's more is that Nelson plays all of the instruments on the album, so you also have the pleasure of appreciating the talents of a multi-talented individual. Nelson made this album with commercial interest, and this album ought to do it. His great song writing and catchy choruses have made "Stars to Sail By" ready for mainstream attention. His vocals are good, with a great Brit pop feel that you'll feel like singing along to. Nelson also produced "Stars to Sail By," and it sounds cleans and, again, ready for the mainstream. "Ever Reborn" has a great arrangement with acoustic and electric guitars, drums, and electronic keyboard work in the background and nice accompanying lyrics. "T.L.D." has a great beat, nice guitar and keyboard work, heartfelt lyrics, and a catchy chorus. With his do-it-yourself attitude, Shelby Nelson has created an admirable album with a great organic sound. Fans of British pop rock should definitely look into this album.
