Sony Music Nashville’s Jordyn Shellhart released her debut album, In A Room, to iTunes this week. The album was first available at Best Buy through the store’s “@15” initiative. It features fifteen tracks written or co-written by the Franklin teenager who will mark her 16th birthday with her Grand Ole Opry debut on March 27.
Among the songs on In A Room are the flirty “Infinite X’s and O’s,” the defiant “Gravity,” and “Heaven Knows,” about her brother who passed away from undiagnosed Type 1 Diabetes.
Shellhart attends Centennial High School in Franklin, TN, and plans to graduate before pursuing a full-fledged country music career.
