America first saw and fell in love with this Mississippi girl on American Idol, season 11, when she sang "Hell On Heels" by Pistol Annies. It was for sure when she opened her mouth and started singing she was 100% headed to Hollywood week, and of course she did with a yes from all three judges! Skylar made it all the way to the final 5 on American Idol, but in my opinion she could've won the whole thing! Fast forward three years later Skylar Laine now has an amazing album (which you can buy on iTunes!!!!) called "Dirt Covered Lace"! First I before I get into her music I want to talk about what a nice person she is. I first met Skylar last year walking around by herself in Nashville, TN. I was just walking along with my mom when out of the blue I see Skylar freaking Laine with her, then newly, red hair! I just walked up to her and asked, "Are you Skylar?!", and turns out it was! She was so nice and sweet to us, taking her personal time to stop and talk to fans, she even took a picture of us on BOTH our phones, and followed me om social media! (and still does!) I was in shock when I met her, but I was more in shock more people weren't coming up to her! I'm like people do you know who that is? One of the best people to make it on American Idol, one of the top 5 on there!?! I was surprised, I actually told her I was baffled to why she didn't have a record deal already, but after meeting her I realized how tough it is to be an artist, and live in such a huge place with so much talent. I mean there is no denying that girl can sing like no other, so I wished her the best, and was hoping she'd get some music out soon! Now a year later I get to meet her again (along with her fiance!) and it seems like some things have turned around for her, she has this awesome new CD, "Dirt Covered Lace" on iTunes with 5 stars, she sounds better than ever! She reminds me of Miranda Lambert in two ways, one lets be honest... they're both a bad a** and two her voice sounds kind of like Miranda's, after all she did cover "Hell On Heels" by Miranda's band! Anyways, y'all should go and buy her album today! My personal favorite is "Settle Down"! Her music what county music needs from its female artists! Her songs are relatable, raw, and real. I for one love Skylar Laine's music, her personality, and how she treats her fans! I would love to see her in concert and hope to soon! I also love how she is a song-writer, there are a lot of songwriters in Nashville, so it's a hard competition, but the songs on her album are just so good words can't describe. Girls, let's just say they're relatable, weather you're a free spirit, or trying to find your way home. So to end it I want to thank Skylar for always being so kind to her fans even if shes spending time with herself, or with others, and I'm so happy for you girl! Getting this album put together while going through family events! I admire your songwriting, and hope to write with you one day and if you're ever in need of a photo-shoot, you know my twitter!
