Michael Gray Featuring Shelly Poole,Borderline The acclaimed pop poetess known as Shelly Poole, who hails from a family just as musical as the Von Trapps in The Sound of Music, was raised on a banquet of cool sounds from Dusty Springfield to Prince, Simon & Garfunkel to Dr Dre. She made gold and platinum albums in the late 1990s as part of the Alisha\'s Attic project, working with her sister, Karen Poole, and the top producers Dave Stewart (of Eurythmics), Bill Bottrell and Mark Plati. She scored a string of hit singles, an Ivor Novello award nomination, and was one of the iconic female voices featured on the Lilith Fair tour of America. And Shelly isn’t just a pretty set of tonsils: she has recently enjoyed songwriting collaborations with a hit parade of pop icons, including Atomic Kitten, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Elizabeth Fraser and Rachel Stevens.
