A unique, new take on female pop country with a Northeastern twist. Tezza was born and raised in upstate New York where she grew up with a love of horses, performing, and country. She attended Berklee College of Music and then made her way to NYC to work on NBC’s Saturday Night Live. Now residing in Nashville, Tezza has had the opportunity to tour across the U.S. and open for acts such as Hunter Hayes, Granger Smith, Chris Young, and Charles Esten, just to name a few, and play world-renowned venues such as The Bluebird, Bitter End, and Nashville’s annual CMA Fest. Her single "Mercury Rising" took the world by storm, hitting 2 million streams, racking up features on CMT, All Access, iHeart Radio, Fox News, and earning a spot on Spotify's hottest Editorial playlists such as Hot Country, New Boots, Wild Country, Breakout Country, and Pop-Co.
