Jersey Shore Country Duo Williams Honor Joins Barefoot Music Festival Lineup with Country Legend Keith Urban
Peytan Porter, the rising country sensation, recently sat down with Reagan Richards of Williams Honor and me to discuss her whirlwind journey in the music industry. From making her Grand Ole Opry debut to celebrating her niece's first birthday and working on her upcoming full-length album, Porter has been keeping busy.
On May 10th, Porter took the stage at the Grand Ole Opry, marking a significant milestone in her career. Porter received a call from her friend and mentor, Ashley McBryde, inviting her to play the Opry, fulfilling one of her lifelong dreams. She took us through her magical day and described what was going on inside her head as she gracefully took the stage barefoot to stand where so many legends have previously stood.
However, not all of Porter's plans have gone as expected. Porter was set to perform at Gulf Coast Jam, where she had planned to celebrate her niece's first birthday on stage. Unfortunately, her set was canceled due to bad weather which was very disappointing, not only for her but for those who wanted to see her performance. Though her plans were forced to change, Porter's niece received a happy birthday celebration via Crackerbarrel restaurant instead and will likely never know the difference.
Despite the setback of a canceled set, Porter remains focused on her music. She is currently working on her full-length album, which promises to showcase her unique style and captivating storytelling. She explained how she creates her goals for the short term and long term and shared that she is in the process of working on those goals now.
As the conversation continued, Reagan could not let the interview come to a close without asking Porter about her fashion style, which Porter described as "whimsy boho." She often opts for outfits that reflect her free-spirited personality through vintage finds and thrifting. The three of us seemed to immediately bond over finding great pieces while thrifting items that have been "pre-loved".
As Peytan Porter continues to make waves in the country music scene, fans eagerly await the release of her new album and future performances. With her undeniable talent and infectious personality, there's no doubt that this rising star is one to watch.
