We’re excited to announce an incredible partnership between Shaylen and the United States Marine Corps. This collaboration goes beyond the music—it’s about honoring values like loyalty, resilience, and dedication. And hey, there’s something in it for you too: take the Marine Character Quiz, and you could win exclusive signed Shaylen merch!

Tough Cookies

For Shaylen, this partnership hits close to home. Her step-brother’s service in the Marine Corps shaped her admiration for those who dedicate themselves to something bigger. Shaylen grew up witnessing the core values of the Marines—loyalty, honesty, and unshakable dependability—lived out in real-time. That’s why teaming up with the Marine Corps feels so personal and meaningful for her.

As Shaylen puts it, they're "tough cookies.” And she knows a thing or two about strength. Her music inspires people to be their boldest selves, so it’s only natural she’d connect with an organization that embodies that same energy.
