Eighteen year old North Dakota native Lexi Wyman, has been singing and writing songs since the age of seven, influenced by her love of country music and life on her farm in Newburg. Picking up the guitar at twelve she began to follow a path that lead to a strong commitment to songwriting by the time she was fourteen. Soon after that in August 2012, she attended the Big Sky Songwriters Festival where she was coached and mentored by some of the biggest songwriters in Country and Pop music. Attending again in December 2013, it had become apparent to the mentors that she was quickly developing as a songwriter/artist, and the decision to take the next step and record her music was made. In August 2014, she was asked to participate in the Miss Geographic Center scholarship pageant in Rugby, North Dakota, thinking it would be a great learning experience. Although her first pageant, she titled and was Miss Geographic Center 2015, which placed her in the 2015 Miss North Dakota pageant, winning recognition for highest gpa and best talent /non finalist.
Next up Lexi completed her self titled eleven song cd of her original songs for summer 2015 (released recently and available on I-tunes, CD Baby and more). Recorded in Bozeman, Montana and Nashville, Tennessee, Producer Dave Goodwin brought in A list musicians to join Lexi on the CD, featuring the likes of Bruce Bouton (Garth Brooks), Jim Kimball (Reba), John Bohlinger (Lee Brice) Ray Scott (“Drinkin Beer”) singing with her on “Drink For Two”, Kim Parent (Brooks and Dunn, Christopher Cross, Grand Ol Opry), Jack Sundrud (Poco,Great Plains) Chris Anderson (Blackhawk,Outlaws) and others including fellow North Dakotan Austin Pressler…
Lexi also enjoys academics, sports, outside activities, singing in her church, and spending time with her family and friends. She hopes to one day be able to make a living singing and songwriting, and it is her ambition be able to travel around the world and share her songs with all people..
Some highlights of the past year…Lexi played the World Snowmobile Expo in West Yellowstone in March, the Sweet Grass Festival in Big Timber Montana in June, and at the Minot Auditorium, sharing the Stage with Blackhawk at both events…and in Nashville rehearsing with her band and The Morrison Brothers…and collaborations with many artists and industry leaders!
