DAUGHTER EMBRACING THE SPOTLIGHT
Unlike her older brother, Maggie enjoys the limelight. Recently, she made a surprise appearance on “Wheel of Fortune,” as reported by The Oprah Magazine.
Maggie is making waves in the country music scene, with a few songs under her belt, including “If I Was Gonna Go,” and “Pretty on the Inside,” as stated in her personal website. She wrote:
“I was born and raised in Maryland and have been singing basically my entire life. I started playing guitar when I was 12 years old, and since then music has been everything tome.”
PASSION FOR COUNTRY MUSIC
Extraordinarily talented, Maggie knows how to play piano, mandolin and ukulele. “My love of performing, recording and writing has grown so much and now I’m just working to make my dreams come true!” she added.
Maggie’s passion for country music was influenced by her parents, who listened a lot to the genre. Her father had worked as a disc jockey at a country radio station in Nashville before starting a television career.

A GREAT SINGER
Her mother is also a fan of iconic country artists Faith Hill and Martina McBride. Maggie looks up to Luke Bryan and Carrie Underwood and her music is greatly influenced by folk singer-songwriters.
Her debut single “First Kiss” was featured in two CMT productions, and she filmed the music video with award-winning director, Trey Fanjoy.
More recently, Maggie released a single titled “Wild Boy,” an upbeat track about a rebellious boy with a wild side.
