Mae Estes is a country singer from Hope, Arkansas. She is heavily influenced by Keith Whitley and Lee Ann Womack. "Mae merges the timelessness of classic country music with modern melodies to create her artistry, both as a songwriter and a performer. “I’ve been heavily influenced by Keith Whitley as an artist,” Mae says. “I definitely don’t aspire to live the same life he did, but there is an organic delivery of raw talent that lives on in his music,” she explains. “I want people listening to my music to feel the way I do when I listen to Keith. I also immensely respect Lee Ann Womack’s career, reputation and talent,” Mae adds, confiding that by listening to Lee Ann’s records, “she quite literally taught me to sing.” " Read more on Last.fm.
