A 13-year-old yodeling cowgirl gains national attention
Thirteen-year-old singer Phoebe White has been yodeling for audiences for nearly half her life. The London, Kentucky yodeling cowgirl is gaining national attention for her music.
When Phoebe White was eight years old, she taught herself to yodel. It was the song Blue by country singer LeAnn Rimes that inspired Phoebe to learn how to yodel. She heard it on the way home from vacation. She said the sound was so different she wanted to try it.
Phoebe said she’s also inspired by old-time yodelers like Jimmie Rodgers and Patsy Montana.
Now she’s thirteen, and in September of last year released her 10-track album called UnXpected.
In the music room at her southeastern Kentucky home where several stringed musical instruments hang on a wall, Phoebe plays an acoustic guitar and sings one of the songs from her album. It’s easy to smile when you hear Phoebe White.
