About Me
Tessa Rae is no stranger to performing, whether in the singing arena as an artist, or as a competitor in the rodeo arena. This 18-year-old singer/songwriter has one National Championship and two Reserve National Championships to her credit on her Working-Cow horse “Buddâ€, and many barrel racing wins to her credit as well. Breaking into the performing arena as an artist came naturally to her since she had competed on her horses from the time she was three-years-old. Performing in front of a national audience was very comfortable to her.Tessa Rae was raised and currently lives on a horse farm in central Oklahoma, where she writes songs with her mother. This past year, she performed in Nashville at a showcase at BB King’s with other talent such as Brad Cotter (winner of Nashville Star), T Graham Brown, and Stella Parton. Including other highlights such as, performing at the Gibson Theatre in Nashville, a concert for the troops returning home from Iraq in Altus, OK, the Oklahoma Opry, Sorghum Day Festival, and the Oklahoma Rising Stars concert. She also entertained the children of the Oklahoma Make-A-Wish Foundation by performing a concert at the Coca-Cola Events Center in Oklahoma City.Tessa Rae is currently recording her second album in Nashville, in which she has written or co-written every song on her Country/Rock album, set to release early summer. She has set goals for herself and doesn’t see boundaries. Her winning personality, hard work, talent, and determination are the keys to her future success as an artist. Just as she set a goal to become a National Champion at the age of 10, Tessa Rae has set her sights on a successful music career. Her love for music, family, horses, friends, and country are surpassed by only one thing, her relationship with the Lord. Though there may be tough times, her relationship with God will see it through, and nothing will stand in her way. Watch out for this up and coming talent in the country music industry!
