About Chely Wright

Chely Wright was born October 25, 1970, in Kansas City,

Missouri, and raised in Wellsville, Kansas, to an “economically

challenged” household. Her passion for music was instilled at

an early age, having grown up in a family of four-generation

musicians, and raised in a home with music emanating from

every corner.

Chely Wright inked her first recording contract with

Mercury/Polygram and then moved over to MCA where she

enjoyed golden success.

Being on a major label was a gift and a dream. I got to

record five albums, see the world (visiting 24 countries) and

play in front of thousands of fans. The experience was a

blessing… and a curse. Regrettably, I really felt like I got

caught up in the ‘machine’.” Over the course of time, Chely

felt her personal return diminished and her efforts as an artist

non-apparent. “I felt like I was on a train. The label was the

conductor; I was the passenger.. Excited in the journey, I

threw my things in a bag and jumped on board. Looking

back, I feel I forfeited the opportunity and time to actually be

creative during the course of the trip. I’m not sure I packed

the right things (in my bag). The right songs for example:

Sometimes the ‘right’ songs don’t get to you before the train

is ’scheduled’ to board. Everything from my tour schedule to

my album release were all part of a preconceived inflexible schedule–or based on other artist projects–I was part of a

plan, a schedule…part of the machine.

Where She’s Been

Resisting corporate pressure and defying public demand,

Chely got off the train, disengaged from the machine and

took a self-imposed sabbatical. ”I passed on 85 show dates

and left myself wide open to the very possibility radio and the

fans may not understand nor accept my departure. But, I

took the time to make the investment in myself–and had to

keep telling myself, ‘it’s okay.’ I spent the time to take

personal inventory–as an artist and as a person. I felt like I

had to return to the reasons I wanted to do this in the first

place. And decide…did I want to go back?”

Chely took a year and a half to “work” on her next project.

The definition of “work” didn’t mean merely to spend her time

writing songs and recording in the studio. “I wanted to work

on me–the whole package–to rediscover who I am as a

person and who I want to be as an artist. I spent a lot of

alone time. I took time to really listen to every record I ever

made. I pulled out old demos I had recorded a number of

years ago. I listened to music recorded by other artists. I

picked and played a little guitar. I wrote for the exercise of

writing from a pure place with no deadlines, no direction, no

submission quota, no preconceptions as to what the label or

radio wants to hear. I wrote from within.” Chely allowed

herself the time to rediscover who she is as an artist and as a

person; to return to herself, find the place where she wanted

to be and…head there.

Not that Chely totally removed herself from her passion to

perform. During the interim, she traveled last year to the

Middle East with the USO in the diverse company of Kid Rock,

John Stamos and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos, Nappy Roots and

others. She performed in Iraq, Korea, Kuwait, Holland and

Switzerland. Chely also lent her talents to perform at a star-

studded Fourth of July Concert broadcast live on PBS from

the lawn of the Capitol in Washington, DC, joining the Irish

Tenors, the Pointer Sisters, the Fifth Dimension and the

National Symphony Orchestra.

Chely also spent some time to co-write with friends. She

co-wrote the recent hit single “I Can’t Sleep” with country

performer Clay Walker and recorded a duet co-written with

Brad Paisley entitled “Hard To Be A Husband, Hard To Be A

Wife.” Chely and Paisley performed the duet as part of the

Grand Ole Opry’s 75th anniversary celebration; the single

was added to the Grand Ole Opry’s 75th Anniversary

Compilation CD.
