Shelby Lynne (born Shelby Lynn Moorer, October 22, 1968, Quantico, Virginia… Read Full Bio ↴Shelby Lynne (born Shelby Lynn Moorer, October 22, 1968, Quantico, Virginia) is an American singer, songwriter and actress.

Lynne's first recording for Epic was a duet with George Jones, "If I Could Bottle This Up", which became a top-50 hit in 1988. In 2000 she won a Grammy award for "Best New Artist", despite the fact that she had been recording and releasing records for more than ten years

With Tears, Lies, and Alibis the follow-up to 2008's Just A Little Lovin' and the first release on her own label, Everso Records, Shelby Lynne affirms her position as a visionary, iconoclastic artist who deftly weaves country, soul, rock, blues, pop and folk influences to forge her own unique style. Like Identity Crisis (2003) and Suit Yourself (2005), this sparse, unguarded collection was produced by Lynne, who evokes a live-in-the-studio vibe from a stellar group of musicians. Born in Quantico, VA, she grew up in Jackson, AL and headed to Nashville at an early age. At 18, Lynne s demos landed her an appearance on TNN s Nashville Now series, which led to a Top 50 duet ( "If I Could Bottle This Up" ) with George Jones and a record deal. Following the release of the critically acclaimed I Am Shelby Lynne in 2000, she won the GRAMMY® for Best New Artist. She made her acting debut in 2005, playing Johnny Cash's mother in the Fox Searchlight motion picture Walk the Line.

Be In The Now
Shelby Lynne Lyrics

There's a cloud that hangs above us
For to darken every light
And to take our spirits from us
Like a bandit in the night

There's a storm on the horizon
Here to wake us from our sleep
It's gonna warm us and to frighten
Every child of pleasant dreams

But never mind the rain
It only aims to slow you down
Never mind the rain
It only means to show you how
To be in the now
To be in the now

There's a man behind the curtain
He got the whole world in his hands
He knows that nothing is for certain
And how he laugh at all our plans

But never mind the rain
It only aims to slow you down
Never mind the rain
It only means to show you how
To be in the now
To be in the now

Never mind the rain
It only aims to slow you down
Never mind the rain
It only means to show you how
To be in the now
To be in the now

To be in the now

To be in the now yeah

To be in the now yeah
