Shantelle Davidson is a singer and entrepreneur.

Raised in Rainy River, a small town in Northern Ontario bordering on Minnesota, she grew up singing in church and at local talent shows. Growing up so close to America, it was almost like it was her destiny to spend some time in the south.

She later returned to Alberta to record her solo debut album with Juno Award winner, Clayton Bellamy the Congregation. The EP was released in 2015 and earned impressive reviews.

Shantelle is back after new most successful song to date (Looking Up) with her new single ‘EVERYWHERE’.

“I’m excited to release Everywhere to radio, because the first time I heard it, I was hooked. It was different and stood out from all the other songs I had considered for my project. I just know it will resonate with people”, says Davidson.

Shantelle became a  Top 10 Nashville North Star (Calgary Stampede) and Top 12 Project Wild Finalist in conjunction with Alberta Music. These opportunities lead to more, opening concerts across Canada for many reputable Artists including Brett Kissel, Meghan Patrick and Chad Brownlee.

Shantelle released two digital singles in 2020, “Looking Up” and “Everywhere” both produced by Gold selling Artist, Dan Davidson and Clayton Bellamy. “Everywhere” the music video earned impressive reviews and 92K views on social media. “Looking Up” generated 71K views and close to 1000 spins at radio, Canada wide.
