Nashville-based recording artist who has a new single coming in just over two weeks, and last November put out her rendition of the classic holiday song, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” which followed the eight-song EP she’d released in August. On stage, she has opened for the likes of Morgan Wallen, Sara Evans, and Sam Hunt, among others, and she already has shows booked from February to July that will take her from Washington, DC, to Maryland to Florida to Virginia and New York. Between Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok alone she is closing in on a half-million followers, and she has gotten a combined total of over seven million video views on her official YouTube channel. She currently has 22 thousand monthly listeners on Spotify, where her top five songs alone have a combined 1.7 million-plus streams.
“For being an independent artist and not having any sort of support from, like, a marketing team or a label or a booking agent – ‘cause I do everything myself – I feel like the results we got, as far as numbers on that song and its success rate, was really good and I’m really proud of it and I love it.”
“There have been songs that I’ve released where I’ve re-written different parts of it.”
“You don’t get the same experience of a song when you play it over your phone or speakers, especially when you just worked so hard on it and somebody’s like, ‘Oh I don’t even hear that bass drop.’ Well, you don’t hear that because you’re listening to it over your phone!”
“Instagram and TikTok are some of the top dog platforms… If I post an Instagram Reel, I kind of already know – at least 95 percent of the time – after a day or two it’s going to have over ten thousand views.”
“All I do know is that persistence is the absolute key, just to keep posting because every time you post – whether it’s getting twenty views or it’s getting two million – it’s putting a chance into the universe that it will go viral.”
“I have been singing and performing on stage, I wanna say… since I was, like, six (years old), performing in front of large crowds… I also did a little bit of acting when I was younger too.”
“I always kind of knew country music was more so the route I wanted to do… it’s the storytelling, it’s just something that resonates with me more than other genres of music, other than rock.”
“The first time I ever came to Nashville to record in the studio… I was about eleven years old… The producer at the time, his name’s Luke Wooten… he has won GRAMMYs.”
“Some people I work with would say I’m a pit bull.”
“Riley Green was one of my more recent bigger shows that I did. I opened for him in front of, I think it was twelve thousand, but I’m pretty sure they were over capacity.”
“I think a lot of the times, like, in the music industry you’ll meet someone who, maybe at that time, they can’t do anything for you, but it’s so important to always be nice to people because you don’t know where they’ll be in a couple years, and then they can help you succeed.”
“I want to hone in more into, like, what *I* want to put out and what *I* believe in.”
“My set, it’s pretty high energy. See, I would like to say it’s not a show, it’s an experience. I’m bopping all over the stage, making eye contact – uncomfortable eye contact – with as many people as I can. So, I’d like to think it takes the person in the crowd, it takes them for a ride.”
“You don’t know which video is going to go viral, so the more you post you’re increasing your likelihood of that happening to you.”
