A raw mix of soul, rock and Americana

On the heels of a national tour Rivers and Rust is ready to hit the road in 2018. Rivers and Rust is a raw mix of soul, rock and Americana, personified by the duo’s Sheila Marshall and Kyle Cook. Marshall — a bluesy Texas songstress with years of songwriting and road time under her belt — partners with Cook, who rose to fame as the guitarist for the multi-platinum Matchbox Twenty and has gone on to make a name for himself as a singer, songwriter and producer.

Marshall, who grew up in the East Texas town of Nacogdoches, began her career by fronting a rock band while attending Stephen F. Austin State University. That’s when her love of Hank Williams, Willie Nelson and Patsy Cline merged with new-to-her artists such as Led Zeppelin and the Band, giving her voice a bluesier tint and even more soul. Playing the Houston rodeo and other high-profile sporting events built her fan base, and her acoustic EP, Beautiful for Situation, earned her a national Budweiser sponsorship. Then came a stint on the talent show Nashville Star, where she became a top 10 finalist; followed by Marshall’s album, Makes Perfect Sense, and the Texas-embraced single “Radio.”

Ten years ago, Cook relocated from Orlando, Florida, to Music City, where the Indiana native has flourished as a songwriter, producer and musician. In addition to his duties as a Matchbox Twenty member.

Rivers and Rust completed their first national tour last summer as part of the Brief History of Everything Tour with Matchbox Twenty and Counting Crows. They are releasing their first full length album this summer.
