Skyla Spencer, an aspiring country music artist, shut down her dance
studio, packed up her belongings, and moved from West Virginia to Music
City two and a half years ago. Well on her way to being country’s next
big star, Skyla is making a mark overseas and here in the United States.
Some of her past releases have topped such charts as Indie World, Inside
Country, Indie Tracker, and also charting on ECMA, Power Source Indie
Chart, and the New Music Weekly Chart.
Skyla Spencer’s debut album, You Said You’d Call Me, is slated for
release in June. Her next single, “You Said You’d Call Me,” will be
hitting radio in June or July. Skyla says: ‘“You said You’d Call Me”
was a blast to record! I feel many people will be able to relate to
this song - both women and men". When asked how she describes her
music, Skyla replies “My music is fun, energetic, & up-lifting. I love
a sense of humor, and that shows through on some of my songs. I also
enjoy writing ballads. Some of the songs on this album are from real
life experiences, but it’s through these experiences, either good or
bad, that I have become stronger. My first album is dedicated to the
people I have lost in my life and to the troops who sacrifice so much
for us.” The album features a song titled “If I Were Rain” that is a
special dedication to the troops. It explains how, in the tough times
that we are facing, the one thing that we can do is to pray for one
another. “If I Were Rain” will be hitting Christian radio in July, and
country radio in the fall.
Skyla Spencer showcased at CRS 2004, and has been an active participant
in Fan Fair/CMA Music Fest for the last three years. This year, 2005, Skyla
