Is she really? Her sister, Allison Moorer, is one of my favorite singers. Very traumatized people, both of them.
Shelby Lynn and her sister Allison Moore were traumitized while children as their father murdered their mother and then killed himself. They're from Clark County Alabama - I met Shelby years ago in Wash, DC and when I was introduced to her, said "Conceived in Jackson Alabama - born in Grovehill Alabama" - she cracked up! These are two cities (dots in the road of Clark County)and then I told her that my mother had dated her uncle in High School...small world, huh?
Murder suicide by daddy.
Shelby Lynn is older, right? She sang with Sheryl Crow on some awards show a few years ago, and I remember saying that Shelby was gay before it was fashionable, and left country music because she was shunned.
Allison Moorer is dating Steve Earle. Apparently Allison is getting a divorce from her former Special Forces husband and is taking up the anti-Bush bandwagon with Mr. Earle.
Don't get me wrong - commie politics and all, I love Earle's music. But an attractive man he ain't.
