With all the new rising stars, Whitney Wright, is one to keep your eye on. The Houston born singer-songwriter, possesses an emotive, awe-inspiring voice that is packed with a power strong enough to brighten our entire world. Taking influences from Adele, Christina Aguilera, and Rihanna, Whitney displays an impressive voice that blends R&B, Pop, and Soul music together. With such a vivacious voice, the 22 year old is set to leave an imprint on the music industry.

Whitney Wright was actually named after the late Whitney Houston, who many say can hear the same emotion and power in Whitney’s voice as once displayed by Whitney Houston. The story behind Whitney discovering her gift is special. While in junior high, Whitney was interested in joining the band but her mother encouraged her to join choir. Soon after joining choir she realized what a beautiful gift of singing she had. Whitney went on to graduate from The High School for Performing and Visual Arts in Houston, Texas. Attending the same school where musical legends Beyonce, Yolanda Adams, and Grammy award winning producer Bryan Michael-Cox, Whitney has the tenacity and the take-charge spirit to become successful in the new school of popular music. 

Like so many big voices that have come from Texas, Whitney is no exception. In 2012, she won multiple singing and talent competitions including East Texas Idol and East Texas Got Talent. When Whitney was not wooing judges of singing competitions with her voice she was the lead singer for her band Studio 234 aka Thomas & Hall. Studio 234 would put on dozens of shows around East Texas playing favorite cover songs along with their own originally recorded music. Immediately following her victories in the competitions, Whitney went back to focusing on her university coursework. Being able to manage both her passion for singing and school, Whitney went on to earn a bachelor's degree from Stephen F. Austin State University in May 2013 in social work. She is currently a graduate student at SFASU looking to attain her masters degree.

Her message is that everyone is the star of their own show, and nothing is impossible for a star. She hopes to be a positive example for people, inspiring and motivating others to step up and take hold of their dreams no matter the obstacles. With a crisp and clean sound, and a desire to be a role model, Whitney is focused on the necessary strides to have longevity and relevance to an ever-evolving music industry.  Whitney is set to release her debut EP early March 2014!
