H.R. No. 265
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Danielle Bradbery of Cypress has earned great
distinction for herself and her hometown by winning season four of
the television singing competition The Voice; and
WHEREAS, This gifted 16-year-old Texan is the youngest
contestant and the first country singer ever to take top honors on
the show, impressing the celebrity judges and countless viewers
with her heartfelt renditions of such country music classics as
Taylor Swift's "Mean," Carrie Underwood's "Jesus Take the Wheel,"
and Pam Tillis's "Maybe It Was Memphis"; and
WHEREAS, The daughter of Danny Keith Bradbery and Gloria Ann
Martinez and a student at Cypress Ranch High School, Ms. Bradbery is
already a sensation online; her rendition of "Heads Carolina, Tails
California" was the first song of the season to make the top 10 on
iTunes, and she ended the season with more singles in the iTunes top
10 than any of the other contestants; and
WHEREAS, Danielle Bradbery has won the hearts of America with
her warmth, poise, and soaring voice, and she may indeed reflect
with pride on her victory as she embarks on what promises to be a
stellar career in country music; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate Danielle
Bradbery on winning season four of The Voice and extend to her
sincere best wishes for continued success and happiness; and, be it
