Our Story

---

Wilson Avenue is a new Canadian rock band, led by Calgary born Singer/Songwriter Shelby Wilson. Wilson Avenue was formed in 2018 and Coming Home is their first released single. Shelby has her B.F.A in Performance Theatre from the University of Lethbridge, and has recently begun to change her focus from theatre, to her first love, music. 

She has been working as a professional performer for the last eight years, leading bands as well as working for numerous theatre companies across Alberta. Working as a Rock band Vocalist aboard Carnival Cruise ships, Shelby met and collaborated with many amazing musicians and artists along her travels and their influences are heard throughout the album. 

The album has a nostalgic classic rock sound, yet the lyrics and vocals are fresh and in touch with the world’s current climate. It features shredding guitar solos juxtaposed against heart wrenching lyrics, and the musicianship on the album is outstanding.
