“Women Want to Hear Women With Elaina” Featuring Kalie Shorr

“Women Want to Hear Women With Elaina” Featuring Kalie Shorr

by Elaina Doré Smith  |  September 24, 2018

Kalie Shorr has been carving out a name for herself since moving to Music City five years ago . . . and she hasn’t let a little thing like the lack of a record deal stand in her way.

Since 2016, Kalie has released three EPs, and as one of the co-founders of the all-female, singer-songwriter collective Song Suffragettes, the talented 24-year-old has been an incredible champion for women, not only in country music, but in all genres. The group’s 2018 song, “Times Up,” which Kalie co-wrote, addresses issues of gender inequality and sexual misconduct in relation to the #MeToo movement.

We talk about Kalie’s journey, shocking ways she’s been told “no” in the industry, her music and so much more. Hope you enjoy!
