The Shireys by Victoria Shirey

group, The Shireys. Group members consist of myself, my parents, Wayne and Darlene Shirey, and my younger sister,
Rachael.
The Shireys’ Top Ten by Victoria Shirey
1. Please tell us
the name of your latest recording and your favorite song from that CD. What is the message behind this song?
Our latest recording is titled, The Shireys - Unconditional Love. One of my favorite songs on this project
is called, "My Load Has Been Lifted". It talks about how we can get so bound by all the burdens of this
life, but when we call on God's name, He lifts that load right off and gives us such freedom.
2. What is one group highlight from the last 12 months?
We signed with Mansion Records out of Branson,
MO with Bill Traylor a few months ago.
3. Where is your favorite place to eat on the road?
Oh gosh, that's a tough question. Being that, the places we eat on the
road consist of Waffle House, Huddle House, McDonalds, IHOP, and Steak n' Shake; out of those, my favorite is Steak
n' Shake.
4. What is your favorite TV series rerun?
I love The Nanny!
5. What is your most favorite technological ‘gadget’?
Oh my gosh, I love gadgets! I guess you could call me a gadget guru. I love them all, but I think if I had
to choose one favorite, it would be my blackberry phone. They are always coming up with something newer and cooler
than they started off with.
6. What was the best decade for music? Favorite artist from that decade?
I think the 50's was a wonderful decade of music. I love the oldies, and I'm a huge Elvis Presley fan!
7. Who is your favorite Christian author/teacher/evangelist?
I love Tommy Bates and Jentzen Franklin. They are so awesome and so anointed!
8. Who is your most
favorite Bible person/character?
I like Esther. I like the
boldness she had.
9. What is your favorite Bible verse?
Wow, I have so many. One of my favorites that gets me through a lot is Philippians 4:13.
10. What
is the last book you read?
I am actually in the middle of
a book right now called Becoming The Woman God Wants Me To Be by Donna Partow.
The
Shireys Sign with Mansion Records
Brentwood, TN (Mansion Entertainment) November 4, 2009
– Mansion Entertainment recently signed their first exclusive songwriting agreement with Nashville-based family group,
The Shireys. Southern Gospel has a long standing tradition of family groups such as The Rambos, The Hinsons, The Happy Goodman
Family, The Crabb Family and many others that are blessed with the talent to not only sing and play but to write their own
songs. Add to that list these South Carolina natives; The Shireys. This family group has been singing and ministering for
30 years. Comprised of mom and dad, Darlene and Wayne, and daughters, Victoria and Rachael, this group has been traveling
full-time since 2008. Mansion Director of Publishing John Mathis commented, “One of the highlights of this year’s
National Quartet Convention was listening to The Shireys at an NQC showcase. I came away with that just-came-from-church-feeling!
There is such a level of enthusiasm and believability about listening to a group that sings songs they have written. I’m
really excited about sharing their music with others!” The
Shireys’ current single, “Greatly To Be Praised”, was written by Victoria and is already receiving
great response from Southern Gospel radio. You can find more information by visiting www.unitytheshireys.com or www.themansionentertainment.com. Return to Top of Page |
