Sheila Marshall is a native of Nacogdoches, TX, a small community deep in the heart of east Texas. Growing up surrounded by the colorful sounds of country music, gospel and a little rock and roll Shelia developed a voice true to her surroundings. After college Sheila found herself working full time and spending countless hours writing and rehearsing with her first band and although the band lasted only a year Sheila made the choice to chase her dream. Before long Sheila found herself in the studio working on her very first CD. During this time the road became her home. Sheila traveled and performed an average of 50 weeks a year; her music took her around the world. Sheila has toured to places such as Asia where she performed for our troops returning from the war in Iraq, A European tour that ended in France, then went on to play Alaska, Hawaii, and across the U.S. and back. She also became a favorite in TX playing for the Texans, Rockets, Grand Prix, Budweiser and the Houston Livestock show and Rodeo. During this time Sheila released an acoustic EP “Beautiful for Situation” and gained a sponsorship from Budweiser, which brought national recognition. Sheila continued writing new songs, perfecting her stage show and building a large following. Sheila found herself poised for national success as a cast member on USA Networks Nashville Star. Sheila placed in the top ten out of thousands that auditioned and shared the stage with greats such as Willie Nelson and Rodney Crowell.
