This Knoxville native began writing songs when she was ten years old, her grandfather being her biggest musical influence. She is not afraid to tell it like it is in her music. A year after releasing her debut EP in 2014, she was discovered by Scotty Schultz, drummer of Shooter Jennings. Scotty opened up his publishing company, Raindrop Music LLC, in 2015 and signed her right away, producing her next EP. Her song "Radio Static" would lead her to her second publishing deal with Johnny Garcia (lead guitar, Garth Brooks) at his company, Busy at Play Publishing. She was invited to be a Recording Academy member in 2021, and her new album, Whiskey History, is out now.
