Anna LaPrad was born and raised in Rock Hill, South Carolina. She grew up singing in church and has felt a deep passion for music from a young age. At 19, Anna bought her first guitar and shifted from writing poetry to writing songs. “Music has always been the voice of my emotions – it’s how I cope with any problems that life throws at me,” says Anna.
In the summer of 2006, Anna started singing competitively in and around Rock Hill. She won first place in the local Colgate County Showdown and went on to win several other competitions in the following years.
“With a powerful voice that can’t be mistaken, rising country star Anna LaPrad has made herself part of the movement to bring female artists back to the forefront.”
After high school graduation, Anna attended college and studied psychology, keeping bigger dreams in the back of her mind. She took piano classes, while minoring in music, and found the time to take guitar lessons on the side.
Upon making the leap to Nashville, it didn’t take long for Anna to land highly coveted residencies at some of Music City’s most famed Honky Tonks. Through playing the Nashville area and becoming a popular staple on Lower Broadway, Anna has managed to build a large and loyal fan base.
“I’m definitely learning what it means to pay your dues and I wouldn’t trade one single second of it for anything else in the world. I can honestly say that I’m loving my life right now and wherever it may lead, I’m just here to enjoy the ride.”
Anna performs everything from country to rock/pop/variety covers, as well as her own original music. View her sample cover song list here.
