Ervin (Traklife):  First off, give the readers a brief intro on you and how you began in music?

Tray Haggerty:  I’m Tray Haggerty from Dallas, Texas but living in LA. Artist, visionary, songwriter! I been recording music since I was 12. I started with my homie Keyj in his closet and kinda fell in love with it at a young age. I decided to take it to another level in 2016 and I been going hard ever since.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Erv:  For new fans, describe your sound and what you want them to get out of listening to your music.

Tray:  My sound would be melodic feel good music. I might create something that makes you dance or I might create something that’s talking about realness and my experiences or however I’m feeling. I’m human.

Erv:  Coming from Dallas, TX, would you say the city has helped influence you and your sound? If so, how?

Tray:  Of course ! I grew up on Wayne and Andre 3000 so being a lyricist is embedded in me. Dallas made me experience things I can put in my music that most people growing up probably never experienced.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Erv:  So we’ve known you for a minute now, enough to say that you’re one of the hardest working artist we know having to juggle music and a career in engineering. How do you do it?

Tray:  God! Plan your work. Work your plan and your plan will work. Something I lived by all my life. I knew what I would have to do get to where I want to be and I been planning this all my life. I wouldn’t be where I am today without college so definitely blessed to be able to say that.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx_0wwU_W6o” align=”center”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Erv:  You have a pretty sizeable catalog of music. Which track or album would you say you’re most proud of or means the most to you?

Tray:  Every song. I feel like their all my babies you know and I’m just a proud Dad that’s happy to have all these incredible children. I’m excited for them to grow up and be introduced to the world. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Erv:  Tell me who’s your dream collaboration. Artist and producer.

Tray:  Andre 3000 would be a dream come true. Wayne of course. Thug and Tory Lanez are also influences so would love to work with them one day. I would love to work with Mannie Fresh as well. That would be hard.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
