Like a few of the current crop of Country Music artists finding their way in the US charts such as Cassadee Pope and Danielle Dradbury, RaeLynn got her big break by auditioning for and making it through to the quarter finals of the U.S. edition of hit competition TV show The Voice during its second season in 2012. Writing for Republic Nashville for the likes of Natalie Hemby and Jon Randell, RaeLynn released her first single God Made Girls in July 2014 and returned to The Voice that year to perform it live, the song going on to be a top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.

Following signing to Warner Bros. Nashville, RaeLynn recorded and released her debut record WildHorse in March 2017, it’s lead single Love Triangle charting well the previous summer. RaeLynn went on to open for Sara Evans alongside Kalie Shorr last year as part of CMT’s Next Women Of Country tour. And all of that has lead her to tonight’s massive opening slot at Maren Morris’ headline show at London’s historic Royal Albert Hall, the last show on the European leg Morris’ Girl tour.
