Teeã Goans grew up on a dirt road that you won’t find on a map. She was raised on the sounds of an AM radio, and a record collection that could have been found on the jukebox of any honkytonk. From an early age, it was clear that the influences that made country music history were being reborn through a young girl from Missouri.

Teeã began her musical journey singing in church when she was just three years old, and has called the stage her home ever since. By the time she was eight, she was entertaining audiences at local fairs and festivals, which led to her being asked to become a member of the Truman Lake Opry in Warsaw, Missouri. This nine year experience allowed her to prepare for her future career in the music business by expressing her unique style and being able to feel the connection between an entertainer and their audience; the kind of lessons that can’t be taught in a classroom. Not to mention, she was privileged to work with such legends as Bill Anderson and Johnny Russell.

After graduating from college, Teeã moved to Nashville to pursue the kind of career that she had always known she would have since childhood. She has become an avid songwriter, creating the kind of songs that will carry country music into the next generation without forgetting where it came from. She is currently kept busy with her songwriting and her title as Producer for “The Grand Ole Opry Warm-Up Show” and host of “Inside the Opry Circle” on 650 AM WSM and XM Satellite Radio. Her work with WSM has allowed her to learn the music industry through radio broadcasting and has given her the opportunity to meet many of the people who have helped to shape her as an artist.

When asked why she does what she does, the answer is simple: “It’s all I know. My dream is to keep the traditions of country music alive and to share this rich history with a new generation through my music.”
