Kylie Rae Harris, a popular Country singer, died after meeting with an accident in New Mexico on the night of September 4. The three-car crash also resulted in the death of another driver, who was 16 years old. The driver of the third car escaped injury according to a report by the AP, as quoted by Billboard.

The crash occurred in the evening on State Road 522 according to initial media reports. Harris' publicist, who confirmed the news of her death, said, "We are heartbroken to confirm that Kylie Rae Harris passed away in a car accident last night. We have no further details to share and ask for privacy for her family at this time. Everyone that knew Kylie knew how much she loved her family and, beyond that, how much she loved music. 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' last post on Twitter noted that the singer was low on gas. She tweeted, "Fuel range is 46 miles and I’m 36 from the nearest gas station. Dear baby Jesus please don’t let me get stranded in NM." Harris had released her EP in March of this year which detailed her journey in life and she penned songs with Jon Randall, Dave Berg, Bonnie Bishop and Wayne Kirkpatrick for the album.

'Twenty Years From Now', a song that she wrote as a prayer for her six-year-old daughter was premiered by Billboard and Harris had said that this was the most important song she had ever written. Speaking of the song, she had earlier said, "It scared me thinking that it was totally possible I could be gone before my daughter reaches that point. 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."
