Born and raised in the three-states border town of Atlanta in NETX; grew up in the offices of the local newspaper where my mother worked. My first articles were published at the age of 12. I have since worked in radio, print media, and hosted my own cable-television interview show on KAQC. My specialty has turned out to be personal profile feature stories, and photography. I have been blessed to have the opportunity to meet and interview such notables as Don Henley, Jackson Browne, Artimus Pyle and Dolly Parton, as well as many others.

Growing up in the Caddo Lake area of East Texas, Sheila Clark Fox had no choice but to sing. As the daughter of a church music director and granddaughter of a Gospel Quartet singer, her talent came naturally.

Sheila, along with husband Alan Fox, front the band Sheila and the Caddo Kats. This summer they will be travelling abroad to receive a songwriting award from Fair Play Country Music of Holland.

In 2015 Sheila won Song of the Year for Love is so Right from Fair Play and was featured in their magazine as artist of the month. She was named the 2018 Entertainer of the Year at the Traditional Country Awards in Nashville, Tennessee.

Sheila was chosen to have one of her original songs included on the nationally released 2019 Compilation Album from the Texas Country Music Association. Her songs, Little Feather and Harley Fever, were nominated for Song and Video of the Year at the Josie Music Awards for 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Her first solo album, “Uncertain, Texas,” was produced in 2019 by Kenny Lee Productions of Nashville. It was named 2022 Nashville’s Album of the Year and Shelia was named 2021 Entertainer of the Year Multi-Genre at the Josie Music Awards.

Her second album, “Would You,” was released on May 25th of 2020. Their latest album, “Country Soul Living in The City” was released in January 2022. Hear the album here: https://open.spotify.com/track/2znw1967s2hHM74f4ajhMH?si=f87e2e3bf9104839
