Born in Kansas City, Missouri, on October 25, 1970, Chely Wright was raised in a military and musical family. She became an avid fan of country classics, Connie Smith, Loretta Lynn, and Conway Twitty. Her music career began at the age of 11 when began singing in bands. During her last year in high school, she got a job performing in the Ozark Jubilee and ended up graduating early when she was awarded a role at the Opryland theme park. She used her time in Nashville polishing her songwriting skills and interning. The Mercury/Polygram label signed Wright, and it appeared her career was launched for success. The Academy of Country Music named Chely the Top New Female Vocalist, however, none of her songs climbed into the Top 40. Stalled, he asked Mercury to release her from her contract and signed with MCA. In 1997, she saw her first hit "Shut Up and Drive" from the album of the same name, and succeeded that with "Single White Female" in 1999. Another stall and another label change brought one more turnaround in her career. Her 2005 "Metropolitan Hotel" CD contains eight songs written by Wright, including "The Bumper of My SUV", which mirrors her strong support for the military. Wright has also received numerous honors for her generous charity work.
