My Boy - Elvie Shane - MP3 instrumental karaoke

The topic of stepchildren, and more specifically the relationship between stepfather and stepson, is not often explored within the world of country music. This makes American country singer Elvie Shane’s 2020 debut single “My Boy” all the more remarkable. Written by Elvie Shane, Russell Sutton, Lee Starr, and Nick Columbia, “My Boy” was inspired by Elvie Shane’s own experience as a stepfather, and finding a new purpose in life as he came into that role. Elvie Shane saw a post on social media that said "I don’t have a stepson, I have a son that was born before I met him.” The sentiment resonated with him, and it led directly to writing the emotional country ballad about this idea. Shortly after signing with BBR Music Group, “My Boy” was released to country radio, and hit Number 22 on the US Country Airplay chart. It also became extremely popular on streaming platforms, reaching 9 million streams in the US alone.
