![]() My favorite part is definitely performing because I feel like that’s the time when I really get to be intimate with the audience. It’s kinda cool to just have people that understand it. We’re all experiencing the same thing, and we’re all on the same level, and just going through the same stuff. I loved touring with another girl, her name’s Asia Nine, and it’s become like a little close family. Rayla: That’s been awesome, getting to know all the guys. You’re currently on tour with 4th Ave what’s that been like so far? What’s your favorite thing about touring? So it would be fun to share the stage with her ![]() But I think it would be really cool to perform with Taylor Swift because I feel like her sets are just huge and fun and amazing, and very detailed. Rayla: Yeah, right now I’m very into Post Malone. Is there an artist that you really want to share the stage with that you haven’t yet? They’ve all been – I’ve had no bad experiences so far – they’ve all been really amazing, and every experience is different and better than the next, so it’s awesome.Ībsolutely, that is awesome. It’s just been so cool to sort of be on the same level and watch the artists perform and do their thing, and just study and get to know them. So then after that, I had all these other opportunities. I remember we got the email, and I was like, wait, do I have to audition? Is this an audition? Do we have to pay money? Do we have to pay money to open? And no, they just emailed me and asked me and I was like, of course. ![]() I remember getting that email, and I was a huge fan of hers, and I actually cried when I met her. Rayla: The very first artist that I opened up for that was big was Jana Kramer. When you were hand-picked to open the shows for these artists, what was your initial reaction to all of it? Was it shocking, overwhelming, what were you feeling? Now, I love the fact that you’ve been hand-picked to open shows for hit artists like Fetty Wap, Daya, and Olivia Holt, among many others. I just am living with my Luna for now, and then eventually, that’s the goal. Rayla: I like Martins, and I would eventually like to get a black Martin acoustic because I’ve played those before and I think they sound absolutely beautiful. Is there any other guitar that you really want to play, that you haven’t been able to get yet? And it’s still together, still in one piece, so that’s my girl. I’ve had my guitar for, I think I’ve had it for five years. So, I was in Florida, and on my eleventh birthday, I spent hours at Guitar Center picking out my very first guitar, which I do still have. I didn’t know how to play it, I just know that I wanted one. Rayla: Well, I wanted to get a guitar for my eleventh birthday, because of Taylor Swift. We chatted with Rayla about her love of playing guitar, what kind of guitar she wants to play, her new EP, touring and much more.Īlthough it’s known that you’re primarily known for your singing and songwriting, you also love to play guitar. Rayla began writing her own songs when she was just five years old and credits Halsey, Camilla Cabello, Taylor Swift, and Ed Sheeran as her major influences. She also sang the theme song, “Just Wanna Go” to Disney Channel’s new series, Fast Layne. She recently went on the Initiation 2.0 tour, opening for 4th Ave. She’s been handpicked to open for such heavy hitters like Daya, Olivia Holt, and Jana Kramer. Rayla is an emerging singer-songwriter, who at the age of 17, has an impressive resume of songwriting and stage credits.
