Warner Music Nashville singer/songwriter Jordyn Shellhart is continuing to share her own brand of conversational country with latest release, “Search My Name” featuring Donovan Woods. “Donovan Woods is a dear friend and one of my favorite artists in the world,” Shellhart shares. “When he sent me an early version of the idea for this song, I simply fell in love with it. Social media makes everyone insane, and as it turns out Donovan and I are included in that insanity, so this is a song about that.
“Getting to write and sing a song with Donovan, 10-out-of-10 would highly recommend.”
The airy and uptempo track was written by Shellhart, Ava Suppelsa, Robyn Dell-Unto and Donovan Woods and produced by Cameron Jaymes. The song finds Shellhart and Woods examining what the early blushes of a crush look like in the social media age and the self-doubt we can feel based on our online presence.
Well, I search my name to see what you might know about me
I search my life for a sign of something you might like
I search my name
Scroll through the captions I wrote and reread them
My body, my family, my friends, how you’d see them
Odds are you won’t even meet ‘em
The new music follows Shellhart’s recent release “A Nice Thing to Do” featuring Charlie Worsham with Billboardopining the duo possessed “relaxed vocal styles, which bubble atop clean, graceful pop-country production.” These new collaborations come on the heels of a breakout 2023 for the Wyoming native who was named a member of 2024’s CMT Listen Up Class following the release of her cozy Christmas EP, Cross-Legged By The Fireplace, and debut album, Primrose, which garnered critical acclaim on multiple year-end best of lists.
“‘Ethereal country-pop’ is the best way to describe the debut album from Jordyn Shellhart, who writes with vulnerability and potent detail on Primrose,” lauded Stereogum, naming the 12-track project one of the “Best Country Albums of 2023,” while noting it’s “a perfect album for those who dreamt of an acoustic twangier version of Midnights.”
“A collection that offers immense career promise,” boasted Billboard upon its release, with Country Now declaring it “a work of pure artistry that will take listeners on a unique musical journey,” while Nashville Lifestyles observes Shellhart “jumps the line of intriguing new songsmiths with her debut…evocative in style and voice.”

About Jordyn Shellhart:
Like a coming-of-age novel chronicling the heroine’s passage from childhood to womanhood, singer/songwriter Jordyn Shellhart’s 12-track Primrose ventures from joyful to introspective, providing intimate yet vivid glimpses into the Wyoming-native’s most formative moments and milestones. Although her first full album for Warner Music Nashville, its refinement and sophistication stems from more than a decade as a signed writer, earning cuts by Little Big Town, Kelsea Ballerini, Cody Johnson and Don Williams. Whether asking “Who Are You Mad At,” crooning over not the loss of a lover but of their mother in “Tell Your Mother I’m Fine” or the retrospective “Maybe Someday You’ll Have A Daughter,” Shellhart’s Primrose is the first chapter in what is sure to be a storied career.
