TAOS, NM. (THECOUNT) — Country singer Kylie Rae Harris tragically died in a car accident on Sept. 4, 2019, according to reports.
Harris, 30, was killed in a crash one day before she was scheduled to perform at the Big Barn Dance Music Festival in Taos, New Mexico.
While on a road trip in northern New Mexico, the young artist was involved in a three-vehicle crash on State Road 522 near the city of Taos; a 16-year-old driver also died as a result of the crash.
The Texas singer-songwriter knew she wanted to be a singer after singing in her church’s choir. She wrote her first song when she was only 14 years old and knew that music would always play an important role in her life, reports WesternJournal.
One of the songs on her latest EP, released in March 2019, featured the song “Twenty Years From Now,” which she wrote as a prayer for her 6-year-old daughter Corbie. She told Billboard that it was the most important song she’d ever written.
