With a combination of Southern sass and powerhouse vocals, Stacia is taking the Nashville music scene by storm. Born and raised in Valdosta, GA, Stacia honed her stage skills by performing at every fair, festival, and funeral this side of the Mason Dixon Line from the time she was four years old.
While working for a local producer in Valdosta as a demo singer/background vocalist/phone call maker/coffee grabber, Stacia began making plans to move to Atlanta to check out the music scene. This is where her love of songwriting began. The first solo song she wrote, I Believe, earned her a spot in the Top 32 for the CMT Unsigned Artist Competition.
With this success under her belt, Stacia made the move to Nashville. The first week, she was named the BestBuy Artist to Watch on the Billy Block Unsigned Artists show on 103.3 Nash FM and after just two months of being in town she was invited to play her first show at the legendary Bluebird Cafe.
That same year, Stacia signed with Halestorm Publishing founded by T.W. Hale (writer of Reba’s Why Haven’t I Heard From You and Joe Diffie’s A Night To Remember). Since then, Stacia was handpicked to perform with Jennifer Nettles in New York City as a part of the ABC show Duets. In addition to Duets, Stacia also officially joined the Bluebird Cafe family, was invited to perform with GRAMMY Award winning producer Randy Khors (Jim Lauderdale) at The Station Inn, performed at Tin Pan South, was featured on WSM’s Opry Radio show Coffee, Country, and Codym and opened for Joe Diffie on the road. Her song Rain Forever (Greg Friia/Pete Tallis/Watkins) debuted on 99.5 Kicks Country to over 500,000 listeners in the South Georgia/North Florida area.
Stacia released her debut EP, I Ain’t The Middle of The Road, produced by T.W. Hale. The success of the EP brought Stacia the opportunity to do a promotional tour in the U.K. and Ireland and spawned two Top 20 singles. She’s now writing for her new project and looking forward to penning songs for other artists as well.
