Singer, Musician, Teacher, Wellness & Yoga Coach
Shelly Ley is a singer who has performed as a classical soloist, in musicals, and is currently in a folk trio called Strange Holler.
Shelly is also a holistic movement coach through her business Healthy Humans Move. Using yoga, somatics, nutrition and strength training Shelly helps people move with strength and joy, and get out of pain.
Her favorite person to move and sing with is Chuck Hawley.
Strange Holler brings effortless three-part harmony to “bluegrass-adjacent” folk music, taking dark twists and playful turns on familiar tunes and original music. You’ll feel joy, sadness, and pick up slight hints of sarcasm from this trio of music teachers. Get ready for a toe-tappin’ and fun-filled evening of music that will leave you smiling.
