Audrey McGraw is putting a temporary pause on her blossoming music career to dive back into the world of television. The youngest daughter of country superstars Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, Audrey has taken up the role of Shelby once more in Taylor Sheridan's gripping neo-Western drama, "Landman," sharing the spotlight with big names like Billy Bob Thornton and Demi Moore.
Audrey first graced the screen in this role last year and has since become a familiar face, appearing multiple times on the show. Her latest appearance lights up the second season's fifth episode, aptly titled "The Pirate Dinner." Audrey teased her role by sharing a sneak peek on social media – a snapshot of her character, Shelby, rocking a vibrant orange bikini, and wrote, "Hi Shelby…. Episode 5 out now."
“Literally come downstairs,” Audrey's sister Maggie joked, capturing the playful sibling banter that followed the post.
The post quickly caught the attention of Audrey's older sisters, with Gracie commenting, "Oh hey diva," and Maggie's playful demand for Audrey to come downstairs. Fans were equally thrilled, with responses ranging from "Just finished watching it. You look amazing," to "So dang beautiful Audrey," celebrating her on-screen talents.
Audrey isn't the only McGraw-Hill with ties to Taylor Sheridan's universe. Her famous parents, Tim and Faith, earned accolades for their roles in the Yellowstone prequel "1883," rubbing shoulders with icons like Sam Elliott and Isabel May. The McGraw family sure knows how to keep it all in the showbiz family!
While Audrey's acting chops continue to shine, she's also made her mark in the music industry. A graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, with campuses in both NYC and LA, she seamlessly juggles acting and songwriting. Her debut single, "I Am…I Said," dropped earlier this year, and she spent this past summer touring Europe alongside Brandi Carlile.
In a recent roundtable with Elle, featuring legends like Sheryl Crow and Maren Morris, Audrey reminisced about her songwriting roots. "The first solid song I wrote [at 17], and I called it 'Mental Breakdown,'" Audrey shared. She candidly recalled showing the song to her parents and the insecurities of growing up under the spotlight of her Grammy-winning family. Her dad's initial skepticism about her acting aspirations eventually turned into a source of encouragement.
Keep an eye out for more from Audrey – whether she's stepping into Shelby's shoes for "Landman" or dropping another hit single, she's a rising star in every sense.
