ABOUT KYLIE FREY:

Kylie Frey is one of country music’s fastest-rising voices, blending rodeo-bred authenticity with powerhouse vocals and fearless songwriting. A native of Opelousas, Louisiana, Kylie grew up in a rodeo family, becoming a Louisiana state goat-tying champion before she ever took the stage. That foundation of grit, discipline, and western heritage runs through every song she writes.

After moving to Nashville, Kylie quickly became a breakout force on the Texas country radio scene, earning multiple Texas Regional Radio No. 1 hits, including “Rodeo Man,” “One Night in Tulsa,” and “Spur of the Moment.” Her consistent radio success helped solidify her as one of the most impactful female artists in modern Texas country.

Kylie’s momentum has continued with national exposure: she made her Grand Ole Opry debut in 2023 and appeared on America’s Got Talent with her emotional original song “Horses in Heaven.” In 2024, she was selected for CMT’s Next Women of Country, highlighting her as one of the genre’s most exciting emerging artists.

Rooted in Western storytelling and inspired by 90s-era country, Kylie Frey is carving out her own lane—one radio hit, rodeo anthem, and heartfelt performance at a time.

ABOUT BRI BAGWELL:

Texas Female Artist of the Decade and multi-year Female Vocalist of the Year, Bri Bagwell, is a force to be reckoned with on the Texas Country scene. Bri has seen her audience grow and diversify as she has progressed through the musical landscape. From her first full-length release, Banned from Santa Fe in 2011, to her 2022 release Corazón y Cabeza (Heart and Head) Bri has masterfully commanded the stage for over a decade with her rousingly fun live performances and trailblazing artistry while creating a loyal and passionate fan base.

​Bri grew up in Las Cruces, NM but now lives in New Braunfels, TX. From the time she was writing poems in her childhood bedroom, to teaching herself how to play a dusty old piano, to getting her first taste of honky-tonk life singing in her twin brothers’ band at age 14, to playing her first solo show in college, Bri has integrated music into each stage of her life.

​After high school, jumping at the chance to live in ‘The Live Music Capital of the World’, Bri attended the University of Texas in Austin. It was here that Bri picked up a guitar and quickly learned to play a few chords. She jokes, “because it was easier to carry than a piano.” Finding herself in the right city with a new passion for the 6-string life surrounded by fellow musicians, Bri was drawn to the stage. Following graduation Bri worked with a startup company in Austin where she utilized her marketing major. But she began playing shows so frequently, she found herself needing to choose between her day job and her dream. After just three months, Bri knew what she had to do and transitioned full time into her music career. With twelve #1 songs in Texas and multiple Female Vocalist of the Year awards to her credit, it is clear she made the right choice.

​A talent as tremendous as Bri’s has begun to garner national attention. People Magazine recently premiered her new record saying, “Bri Bagwell finds the path to her own heart on new album Corazón y Cabeza...[Bagwell] is increasingly finding her name being mentioned amongst country music truth tellers such as Ashley McBride and Morgan Wade."

​Bri’s musical influences have all played a part in her musical evolution; from Johnny Cash to Dwight Yoakam, Miranda Lambert to George Strait, their spirits live within her songs. While on the road, she has shared the stage with some of the best: Willie Nelson, Miranda Lambert, Gary Alan, Dwight Yoakam, Randy Rogers, Robert Earl Keen, Wade Bowen just to name a few.

​Playing over 100 shows in back-to-back years, Bagwell is no stranger when it comes to hard work. Fresh off the release of her new record, she is already writing new music alongside planning tour dates to some of her favorite venues. When asked about life on the road, Bri responds, “it’s in my blood.”

Don't miss a live show with Bri and be on the lookout at the 16th Annual TRRMA in March as Bri will be on the prowl as the official Roving Reporter for T3R!
