Born March 3, 1995, in Opelousas, La., Frey was raised to love horses and country music as much as life itself. Singing the National Anthem at rodeos became standard by the age of five, and by 15, she was named the Louisiana High School Rodeo Queen. A year later, she won the Louisiana state championship for goat-tying.
As the official soundtrack of the family road trips to rodeo competitions, the music ofย Lee Ann Womack,ย Wynonna Judd,ย Linda Ronstadt,ย Jessie Colter,ย Shania Twain, theย Dixie Chicks,ย Pam Tillisย andย Patty Loveless played an integral role in shaping her ear for storytelling that stirs the soul. Discovering its power to purify emotions, music became Freyโs primary vehicle for interpreting her world when she started writing songs at 16. In her first decade in music, her grit, powerhouse vocals and authenticity have made her a favorite amongย Shania Twainย and Texasโ most respected troubadours, includingย Randy Rogersย andย Cody Johnson. Following two Top 10โs on the Texas Regional Radio Report Chart and her first No. 1 โRodeo Man,โ she relocated to Nashville to pursue country music professionally and aligned with GRAMMY winnerย Paul Worley for her world debut in 2017. She released the acclaimed Rogers collaboration โToo Bad,โ which was her second No. 1 on theย Texas Regional Radio Report Charts. She was one of Twainโs protรฉgรฉs on the inaugural season of USA Networkโs โReal Countryโ in 2018. Another Texas chart-topper โAinโt Enough Beerโ followed in November 2018. On the heelโs of her 3rd T3R #1 โOne night in Tulsa,โ Frey is currently promoting the acoustic version of the latter along with her latest uptempo, energetic,ย Leslie Satcherย co-penned single, โSpur of The Momentโ.
