Singer/songwriter

Ross was born and raised in Graham, Texas.  He is twenty and has been playing guitar for the past six years.  Lyrics flow off the tip of his tongue like the true poet that he is.  Music is not just something he does, it's who he is.  Just like his music, Ross is passionate, driven, energetic, and has quite a wild streak.

Ross Shifflett aka "Shiffy The Kid" has just arrived on the Southern California music scene from his home in North Texas.  His debut album is a map to his soul...Rock 'n Roll with a touch of the Blues.  Not only does Ross write and sing his songs, he does things with a guitar that would make the most seasoned musician stop and want to play along.  The passion and energy with which he plays flows directly from his soul to that of his fans!  Jump on, hold on tight and enjoy the ride that is...Ross Shifflett!
