The Tiera Show

Apple Music Country host Tiera Kennedy credits her celestial singing voice to God, while crediting her country music songwriting to what flows organically from her pen. The Birmingham, Alabama, native’s unique sound—storytelling-based country laced with the influence of the R&B she was raised on—stems from equal parts nature and nurture. “My heart is in country music, but I draw inspiration from all different genres,” she says. “So you’re going to hear everything from country to R&B, the classics to the new, and all the feel-good songs that set fire to your soul.” The Nashville Scene called Tiera “the total package,” as she landed on several “Artists to Watch” lists and became a featured collaborator on Beyoncé’s COWBOY CARTER. Her debut album takes listeners on a journey through the process of finding oneself as a person and artist amidst the shotgun start of a career and the peaks and valleys that followed, all while maintaining the niche that Tiera has carved out for herself in country music.
