the Parade. She contributed to Forever Cool, a 2007 album from Capitol/EMI featuring contemporary artists in duets with the late Dean Martin.

She also joined the 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th and, in 2015, the 14th annual Independent Music Awards judging panel, to assist independent musicians' careers. Lynne has taken on a few acting roles. “She expressed interest about working in film back in the January 1992 issue of Modern Screen’s Country Music when we spoke for a story I teased on the cover (“Shelby Lynne: Is Hollywood Beckoning?”) after her appearance in Willie Nelson’s Another Pair of Aces TV-movie with Kris Kristofferson. “It was hardly an acting role,” she said at the time. “I played myself. I didn’t even have any dialogue. Willie’s a crook gone good. Kris is the sheriff and I’m a saloon singer. I sang two songs. One they played while Kris was makin’ love. So, so much for my big acting career!” She portrayed Johnny Cash's mother Carrie in the 2005 film Walk the Line. She appeared in a 2009 episode of the Lifetime drama series Army Wives as a country singer trying to reunite with her son. She played herself in an episode of the Starz comedy series Head Case''. She was featured in Live From Daryl's House with Daryl Hall in a "delta blues-meets-Philly soul" throwdown. The show aired on Viacom's Palladia music channel on December 15, 2012. Personal life Lynne was married at age 18 but divorced within a year. Regarding her sexuality, she says “Everybody’s a little gay.” Discography Filmography Awards Grammy Awards 2001: Best New Artist Academy of Country Music Awards 1990: New Female Vocalist of the Year References External links Official site Shelby Lynne on NPR Music 1968 births Living people People from Quantico, Virginia Grammy Award winners American contraltos American women country singers American country singer-songwriters People from Clarke County, Alabama Lost Highway Records artists Epic Records artists Curb Records artists Mercury Records artists Capitol Records artists Island Records artists Singer-songwriters from Virginia Guitarists from Alabama Guitarists from Virginia 20th-century American guitarists Country musicians from Alabama 20th-century American women guitarists 21st-century American women guitarists 21st-century American guitarists Singer-songwriters from Alabama Thirty Tigers artists
