We know you want to know more about Kendal Conrad so be sure to check out our interview with her below.
FBC: What made you want to get involved in the country music world?
KC: I think country music sort of chose me. I’m not much of a party girl, and country music has always been good, honest music. I was a theatre major in college, and I love the aspect of storytelling that is inherent in country music as well. In a way, playing a role onstage in a theatre production and singing a song are just two different ways to tell a story.
FBC: What song of yours is your favorite and why?
KC: My favorite song is one I wrote when I was in college called “Unnoticed.” I wrote the entire song (which on paper reads like a love story) around the lyric “I promise that you will never go unnoticed.” I just thought it would be a beautiful thing to say to someone.
FBC: Who is your country music idol and why?
KC: Reba is my country music idol. I look at her career thus far and all of the things she’s done, and I am SO inspired – as an artist and as a person. That’s my ultimate goal for my own career: to be someone who inspires.
FBC: If you could do a country duet with anyone who would it be and why?
KC: Because I sang Miranda’s part in “We Were Us” when I performed with Keith, I would love to record an original song with him. I’m also a big fan of Easton Corbin – I feel like our voices would fit really well together!
FBC: What has been your favorite memory of your music journey so far?
KC: My favorite memory so far would have to be singing with Keith Urban last year. Even typing that sentence still feels weird to me! How often do you get to share the stage with one of your favorite country singers?
FBC: What are three fun facts about you that you want your fans to know?
KC: 1. One of my favorite books of all-time is Tess of the D’Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy. 2. I dressed up as Freddy Krueger complete with mask, sweater, fedora, and razor gloves for three Halloweens in a row. 3. I never went to prom.
