Kylie Rae Harris, a rising country singer from Texas, died in a car accident on Wednesday in New Mexico, Alex Torrez, the CEO of her management company, Torrez Music Group, tells CNN. She was 30.

“We are heartbroken to confirm that Kylie Rae Harris passed away in a car accident last night,” a statement provided to CNN from Torrez read. “We have no further details to share, and ask for privacy for her family at this time.”

Harris, who released a self-titled EP in March, had been in New Mexico to perform at Michael Hearne’s Big Barn Dance Music Festival, according to the concert listings on her official website. Her next performance was supposed to take place on Saturday in Turkey, Texas.

“Everyone that knew Kylie knew how much she loved her family and, beyond that, how much she loved music,” the statement added. “The best tribute to her unmatched enthusiasm for both is to spread as much love as you can today, and listen to music that fully inspires you.”

Harris’ friends and peers in the Texas country music scene and beyond honored her on Thursday upon news of her passing.

Just gutted to open up Twitter and see the news on @KylieRH. She was an exceptionally kind soul and incredible artist and my heart breaks knowing she is gone.
Sending so much love to her daughter and loved ones today💕

I can’t find the words for you, @KylieRH. You were a light. A beauty. A wordsmith. A loving mother, and a friend to all of us. This is a huge loss for our community and to the world for the songs that you had yet to write.

Harris had a daughter, Corbie, for whom she wrote a song featured on her EP called “Twenty Years from Now.”

Harris told Billboard that she wrote the song after her father’s death and hoped it would be a lasting message to her own child.
“It scared me thinking that it was totally possible I could be gone before my daughter reaches that point,” she told the publication. “I want to meet my kid’s kids. Getting to the age your parents were when you were a child brings a whole lot of perspective.”
She added: “Parents are people. People make mistakes and being a parent is hard. I’m not always going to make the right choices, but I hope that when Corbie gets older she’ll see that they were all made with love and the best of intentions.”
