Country music fans tuning into LANDMAN may recognize a familiar face: Audrey McGraw, the daughter of Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.
Audrey McGraw Plays Shelby In LANDMAN
Audrey appears in the hit Paramount+ series as Shelby, a teenager who lives next door to Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton) and quickly befriends his daughter Ainsley (Michelle Randolph).
She first appears in season one, episode five, titled “Where Is Home,” where she’s seen chatting with Ainsley by the pool. The pair later attend parties together at the patch.
According to IMDb, Audrey appears as Shelby in four episodes of LANDMAN so far, with her most recent appearance coming in “The Pirate Dinner,” episode five of season two.
This Marks Her Acting Debut
LANDMAN marks Audrey McGraw’s acting debut, and follows her parents’ starring roles in 1883, which was also created by Taylor Sheridan. LANDMAN stars Oscar winner Billy Bob Thornton, alongside Oscar nominees Demi Moore, Andy Garcia, and Sam Elliott, as well as Ali Larter. Additional cast members include Jacob Lofland, Michelle Randolph, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, Mark Collie, James Jordan, and Colm Feore.
The Taylor Sheridan–co-created series continues to break records. A recent network release revealed that the season two premiere drew more than 9.2 million streaming views in its first two days following its exclusive debut on Paramount+ on November 16. That figure represents a 262% increase over the season one premiere, making it the most-watched original series premiere in Paramount+ history. Earlier this month, Paramount+ also announced that LANDMAN has been renewed for a third season.
At this time, it’s unclear whether Audrey McGraw will return as Shelby in future episodes.
Audrey McGraw’s Music Career
Off screen, Audrey is turning heads as well. She recently took the stage at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas during her father’s residency, delivering a powerful cover of Heart’s “Barracuda.” A video captured by Music Mayhem quickly made the rounds online, drawing comparisons to Faith Hill for her commanding vocals.
Audrey McGraw recently toured with Brandi Carlile and shared that she is in the studio recording new music.
