(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) Feb. 18, 2011—Female vocalist Beckah Shae garnered her first Dove Award nomination this week, as announced at an industry press conference in Atlanta for the 42nd Annual GMA Dove Awards. Shae received a nod in the category of Urban Recorded Song of the Year for her Top 10 CHR hit, “Life.”
Shae is among good company in the competitive category which includes songs by other top artists Brian Courtney Wilson, Lowell Pye, Karen Clark Sheard, and Lola Godheld. She comments, “I'm really honored and grateful! God continues to astound me with His grace and favor.”
“Life,” which stands for Love In Full Effect, is from Shae’s most recent album of the same title. Shae co-wrote the song with husband and producer Jack Shocklee for her fourth full-length project, which released June 15, 2010. “Life” was Shae’s second consecutive Top 10 radio single in 2010, peaking at No. 8 on the Billboard Christian Hit Radio chart last July.
An Orange County native, Beckah Shae has released four independent projects including Butterfly (2006), Joy (2008), Emmanuel (2010), and LIFE (2010). Her soulful sound has landed Shae two Top 10 CHR singles as well as featured vocals on additional projects including Tonight by tobyMac, whom she joined onstage for a performance at the 2010 GMA Dove Awards, and Jonny Lang’s Turn Around. Shae will release her fifth record this summer. For more information, visit www.beckahshae.com or www.facebook.com/beckahshae. Follow Beckah on Twitter at www.twitter.com/beckahshae.
