Alannah McCready

Send us Fan MailAlannah McCready has made a lifelong habit out of pouring her heart and soul into every task she puts her mind to. Growing up in Minnesota and getting her first pair of skates at the age of three, it was inevitable that McCready was going to become a hockey star. “It's called the state of hockey for a reason,” she notes.  The Minneapolis native discovered her expertise as a hockey goalie at skating camp at the age of 10 when she stopped all but two shots from entering the net, proudly telling her father, “I think I might be good at that.” But it was her mother who imprinted her with a love of country music that she grew up on in Oklahoma, the young McCready learning how to sing by watching the techniques of Trisha Yearwood and Martina McBride.Support the showThanks for listening!  Follow us at youtube.com/@skiphappenspodcast
