About Shelly E. Johnson

Born and raised in Marietta, Georgia, Shelly E. Johnson is an Atlanta-based Christian Artist, Worship Leader and Songwriter. Raised in a strong Christian home, it wasn’t until the age of fourteen when Shelly’s father tragically died from cancer that Shelly met God for the very first time in a real and personal way. It was during that experience that Shelly began writing songs and felt God’s calling on her life to ministry. Shelly followed her calling to Nashville, TN in 2003 to attend Belmont University where she earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Commercial Music. After graduating in 2007, her songs began to gain the attention of the Christian music industry, as “Power of the Cross” was awarded Song of the Year by the Gospel Music Association, and her song “Draw Near” was awarded Scripture Song of the Year. In 2009, Shelly released her independent album Mosaic of Grace, featuring the award winning song “Power of the Cross”, which has been recorded by Natalie Grant, Steve Green and has become widely popular in churches across the country and in parts of the world. In February 2011, Shelly signed her first publishing and recording deal with LifeWay Worship, in partnership with Maranatha Music and is set to release her debut project August 14, 2012. Shelly spends her time writing songs and traveling the country singing and leading worship at churches, womens conferences and other events. Visit www.shellyejohnson.com to learn more.
