Stand Up Whitney Shay

Stand Up! It's not just an album title, it's an order, forcing anyone who hears Whitney Shay's brand of rocket-fuelled R&B onto the dancefloor. A flame-haired stick of dynamite in a sparkling dress, this San Diego phenomenon has made a record for dancing, drinking and dreaming, with songs to soundtrack the peaks and punches of life. "I make high-energy soulful rhythm 'n' blues," she explains, "that makes people dance and feel something deep inside."
