Shi'Ann is one of nine siblings, so it was always hard to stand out in her family. The big singer in her family was her father, Ricky. He was a gospel singer and would travel to different churches to sing. When she was little her dad would teach her music scales and by the time she was 4, she was singing around the house. At age 7, she started singing in church with her Dad and eventually he set up a PA system in the living room where they would practice together trying to out riff each other. When Shi'Ann was 8, her father signed her up for her first talent contest. She started singing at all the soccer and football games in town. In 2015, with the help of her mom, Shi'Ann started to find ways to perform outside of Kentucky. They recorded a video of her performing the National Anthem and sent it to every NBA team in the country. The Utah Jazz ended up calling her and she flew out to Utah to perform before a game. Even though she is only 15, she realizes she needs a show such as "The Voice" to finally make her dreams come true.
