A Gift Recognized Early
Taushey’s musical journey began at the tender age of two when her parents, Reverend Waylon D. Sias and Ami L. Moore, recognized her extraordinary singing talent. Her voice was so captivating that her family included her in their singing group, Ami Sias and the Sias Family, by the time she was six. It was clear from the start that Taushey was destined for greatness.
By the age of nine, Taushey had already made her mark as the lead singer on the group’s single, “I’ll Follow You Always.” Her talent didn’t go unnoticed; she was also featured in the “Deep in the Heart of Texas” commercial, which aired across the central Texas metroplex. These early achievements laid a solid foundation for her burgeoning career.
Rising Through Competitions and Stages
Taushey’s passion for music led her to compete in numerous local and national contests, showcasing her extraordinary vocal abilities. These competitions provided her with the opportunity to share the stage with renowned artists such as God’s Property (Kirk Franklin), Shirley Caesar, Douglas Miller, Shaun McLemore, and Tamela Mann. Among these notable experiences, performing alongside her all-time favorite, Kim Burrell, stands out as a defining moment in her career.
In 2016, Taushey’s dedication to her craft paid off when she released her single “Always There,” which quickly climbed to #1 on ReverbNation. This success brought her widespread recognition and earned her the “Lillian Lily Award” and “Best New Artist of the Year” within just six months.
