History

Shae received her first Dove Award nomination in 2011 in the category of Urban Recorded Song of the Year for "Life". She also appeared on Jonny Lang's Turn Around (A&M), TobyMac's "Funky Jesus Music", Tonight (ForeFront) and joined him onstage for a performance at the 2010 GMA Dove Awards. Shae co-wrote several songs and featured on the title-track of Montell Jordan's album, Shake Heaven (Victory World Music), and is currently featured on Byron "Mr. Talkbox" Chambers' EP Show Me the Way on the track "Everything Works Together". Shae also appears on the movie soundtrack I'm in Love with a Church Girl.

Philanthropy

Shae has traveled, promoting and working alongside ministries like Kids Alive International, an organization that rescues abandoned and orphaned children. After a visit to Kenya in 2010 with Kids Alive, she filmed the music video, "Imagine", from her album LIFE, expressing her desire to "see others open up their eyes to the need and make a difference by becoming involved in sponsorship, adoption and missions." In 2011 she traveled with The A21 Campaign to Greece and acted as a "walking billboard", with matching shirts and taped mouths, as part of an initiative to raise awareness of human trafficking. On July 28, 2011, Shae performed for an audience that included keynote speaker Bernice King, daughter of Martin Luther King Jr., at the Women and Girls Benefit Luncheon held on the campus of Lipscomb University in Nashville, to raise funds for Youth Life Learning Centers (a program of Youth Life Foundation of Tennessee).
