Interview with Rachele Lynae

Rachele Lynae is back with a new album dropping this Friday, May 22nd!  Check out our interview with her to learn more about the artist behind the music!

What project(s) are you currently working on?

My new album, Every Reason, is out on May 22!! That is my main focus right now. I am super excited about sharing this music with the world! I’m also working on a duo project with my sister. We call ourselves GIRL 907.

What inspired you to pursue a career in music and when did you know?

I have always wanted ‘to be a singer’ since I was about three years old… maybe younger. As I got older and discovered a love for songwriting, my view of a career in music expanded to the different facets of an artist: writing/recording/performing. I love all of that.

I think my earliest inspiration for this career choice was my Dad playing guitar, Disney princess movies, and the knowledge that my grandmother had made a record and toured.

If you weren’t pursuing a career in music, what would you be doing for a living?

 That is a great question. Music has always been my focus.

What is your favorite downtime activity?

 Binge watching shows or reading a book. Basically, I love digging into a good story.

Who is your biggest celebrity crush?

I don’t really have a celebrity crush, although I definitely appreciate a lead that can deliver the role with swagger.

Who is your favorite sports team(s)?

 People say this isn’t allowed, but the 49ers and the Seahawks are my fav…with the Tennessee Titans deserving a notable mention. Gotta support the home team 🙂

What is the last movie that you watched?

 Game Night

What is the last album you listened to?

 Alicia Keys, ‘As I Am’

If you could only listen to one album for the rest of your life, what would it be?

 Oh man, this is a very difficult question. Maybe, ‘Divide’ by Ed Sheeran. But I think it would ruin any record if I had to listen to it on repeat indefinitely. I love to listen to so many different artists!

What is the greatest country song of all time?

 ‘I Will Always Love You’

What has been your favorite city/town that you’ve visited out on the road?

 I honestly don’t have a single favorite. I love visiting places and playing gigs where I have friends or family that I get to see along the way.

What is your favorite meal?

 Danger Halibut, and if not that then basically anything Thai.

Who is your dream duet partner?

 My sister Heather Cole 😉

Who would you like to go on tour with?

 This would be a long list, but Keith Urban is probably at the top though

What is your ultimate career goal(s)?

 To write music, record music, play music, rinse, repeat, and at some point play the Grand Ole Opry.
