NEW CD JUST RELEASED
RACHEL's NEW SINGLE, "OKLAHOMA"
ITUNES and WAL-MART
Rachel Stacy's debut single "Damn You Look Good" combines her feel-good songwriting with classic country twang, which work together to inspire and uplift her listeners.
Rachel, raised in the heart of Oklahoma, spent her earliest childhood on the road with her mother, a singer/songwriter playing in bars and lounges across the Midwest. "I would just stare at my mother in amazement," says Rachel. "I didn't realize she was playing to just 15 grumpy guys drinking in a Holiday Inn lounge. To me, she was this awe-inspiring woman baring her soul on what looked to me like a huge stage." By age three, Rachel was the official crowd wrangler, taking requests, accepting tips and sometimes joining her mother on stage.
It didnt take too long for her family to realize she could sing too. "I remember being in the car with my two aunts on the way to one of Mom's shows. I was singing along to the radio when one of my aunts said, "Rachel! You're harmonizing!" At the time, I didn't know what that meant. I was just trying to make everything sound right in my head as I sang along."
From that early recognition of her talent, Rachel’s drive to succeed as a performer was born. She began violin lessons, eventually taking first chair with the Oklahoma Junior Symphony. She won many pageants and talent competitions from age four through high school, where she was voted "most talented." Throughout high school and college, Rachel was known as "the girl who sings," appearing in many musical theatre and drama productions, and volunteering her time by performing for the Special Olympics yearly. Throughout these years, Rachel realized that the most exciting part of her time on stage was in connecting with her audience. Rachel say, "There is nothing better than being on stage and watchin my audience sing along to the songs I've written and knowing they can relate to every word; that's connection."
Rachel, a smalltown country girl, was obviously falling in love with the world of music. She began writing songs at a very young age and honed her vocal craft by participating in her Mom's nightly "pickin' parties," when family and friends would gather on the front porch with guitars, harmonicas and fiddles, and sing Waylon, Willie and Merle songs into the night.
Leaving her small town of Piedmont head to the big state of California for college, Rachel graduated from the University of California, Irvine. During her time at UCI, she would break away from school any chance she could get to take to the streets of Los Angeles, not even an hour away, carrying her guitar and going from club to club in hopes of finding one that would let her sing her music. Show after show, test after test, and of course, as her fan base grew, Rachel was confident she was doing the right thing with her life. She succeeded in bringing the music she believed in to Los Angeles, and now it was time to branch out. She has continued to make her mark in country music, playing with artists such as Joe Diffie, The Oakridge Boys, Keith Anderson, ZZ Top, Ty England and Phil Vassar and selling out shows across America on her own during her recent six-month tour.
Rachel's debut single, "Damn You Look Good" is being played on stations all over Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and New Mexico. For radio station updates, please visit www.rachelstacy.com
