ABOUT:
A native of Lorena, Texas, Kelly has multiple connections to the Nashville industry. She has also been unafraid to defy convention. “This is not my first rodeo,” she says of her label debut. “I worked really hard in Texas before I came to Nashville. I wrote songs, put out records, did a radio tour, and played every weekend while earning a Master’s degree. They say don’t have a ‘plan B,’ but I watched my mom struggle to get that next level of pay. My mom earned her bachelor’s degree when she was 60, so school was important to me to know I could take care of myself.”

Her sister Kristen signed to a Nashville label and charted a single in 2012, which gave Kimberly an early education. “I got to sing harmony with her on tours with Brad Paisley, Rascal Flatts and Alan Jackson. I learned so much watching her and the crowd. A lot of my confidence onstage comes from that.”
