About Tera

Tera Lynne makes her own version of Americana—running on blue-collar bones and with a high-gloss finish. She grew up on the outskirts of St. Louis, the youngest in the house, never in
charge of the dial; good taste became muscle memory. “I didn’t control the radio,” she says. “I just absorbed everything.” ’90s country, rock and roll, Rat Pack crooners. Her parents worked long
hours, one an electrician, one a horse trainer, so work ethic lived in the walls.

Naturally she began writing her first songs at only eleven. She moved to Nashville in her early twenties and clocked Lower Broadway like a job. Five nights a week. Four hours a set. She learned to hold a crowd and walk out with its heart. “Stages don’t intimidate me,” she says. “I feel most myself with a mic.”
