Kolby Gray Biography
Dual threat.”
That’s what ESPN called Kolby Gray in 2009, based on his running and passing ability as the #28-ranked high school quarterback in the nation.
That distinction is certainly still applicable to Gray, who originally suited up for the University of Pittsburg, but has now transferred to Baylor University in his home state of Texas.
He’s still a double threat on the field, but it’s his electric personality and vocal ability garnering attention for him off the field – specifically in Nashville, where he’s recording his first album.
When a college player transfers to another Division I school, it’s mandatory that they sit out a season, which works well for Gray’s burgeoning singing career. “It would be very hard to be doing two-a-days and recording an album,” says the multi-tasking Texan.
Many singers come to Nashville each year to “make it.” It’s extremely rare for one to attract the producing talents of David and Dann Huff, as well as the songs of writers like Jay DeMarcus, Gary LeVox, Lee Brice, Neil Thrasher, Frank Meyers, and Jason Sellers.
Debra Byrd, who has served as the head vocal coach for American Idol throughout the life of the heralded talent series, traveled to Nashville to work with Gray when he cut his record at Starstruck. “David Huff brought Kolby to me, and I immediately found that he was a quick study,” said Byrd, who has coached every Idol winner, including Carrie Underwood and Scotty McCreary. “I like to meet an artist where they are, and I found Kolby more than ready to record this project they had planned. I’ve really enjoyed watching him discover his own talent. And he is so talented.”
Beyond the talent, Gray is just a regular 21-year-old. The most important thing in his life is family, which works out well, because he has five siblings in his large Houston family. “I have seen so many young artists come along, and the thing that’s so very important, which Kolby has, is family support. That’s something he’s going to need to rely on as his career moves forward,” said Byrd after the recording sessions, which Gray’s father, uncle, and two of his sisters attended.
His producer, David Huff, is thrilled about his new artist, noting, “He has a unique charisma that you don’t find all the time. He writes amazing songs. Five of the songs on the project are his, and he will grow as a performer and songwriter. I can’t wait to watch that, because I feel the sky is the limit with this one.” Huff goes on to say that he’s so excited about Gray’s talent that he couldn’t wait to bring his brother Dann in on the project. “Obviously, Dann is no stranger to talent, and he sees what I see in Kolby. He’ll bring something extra as the co-producer on a few songs.”
Recently, the gridiron standout returned to his high school, Cypress Falls in Houston, and again took the field. But this time, he showed students his performing talent. “I loved singing there. This school and these people have done so much for me. I really appreciate it, and going back on the field was just natural,” Gray said of his halftime performance at the team’s spring game. “I think they got to see a side of me they hadn’t seen before.”
A “side” that Nashville’s country music industry is anxious to see more of very soon.
