Rachel Reinert
You may remember Rachel Reinert from the four-person group Gloriana, which released some awesome, sing-along hits like “Wild At Heart,” “[Kissed You] Good Night,” and “Can’t Shake You.” The singer spoke to HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY and revealed how she broke into the business! “I went to a performing arts school from 7th-10th grade. I studied musical theatre and had dreams of moving to New York City to do Broadway. My dream changed when I started writing country songs at 15. I graduated high school a year early after signing a publishing deal and moved to Nashville from Southern California at age 16. I didn’t know anyone and didn’t have a real plan, I just had a dream and followed it all the way across the country.”
Rachel is an avid collector of antiques and vinyls
“I love vinyl records. I’m building my collection, but I have a pretty good mix of old and new…the old ones are thanks to my dad’s collection from the 70’s which I had shipped to Nashville a few years back. I also have four record players in my very small house, including a restored Magnavox record cabinet. I’m a sucker for antiques.”
On The Songs From Her Debut Album ‘Into The Blue’
“I drew from my relationships, experiences, and life changes. I went through so much over the past four years, and each song reflects 11 different stories.”
On Her New Album
“I experimented a lot creatively, but I knew I wanted everything to feel really personal and honest. I got in touch with my spirituality and found myself through the writing process. Everything came together really naturally over time.”
