Grace Pettis, from Lookout Mountain, Alabama, has son

gwriting in her blood. The daughter of a poetry

scholar and a troubadour, Grace comes by her love of

words honestly. Her father, Pierce Pettis, is a crit

Brooks hit “You Move Me.” Both Grace’s brothers

Rayvon and George (100 Watt Horse) are songwriters a

clouds” (SiriusXM Program Director, Mary Sue
