WHAT IT IS: Her gold-certified “God Made Girls” scored the highest-charting debut single by a solo female artist in 2014, selling 500k+. Her follow-up single, “For a Boy,” is available on iTunes and has impacted Country radio. The vibrant 20-year-old singer/songwriter penned a diverse collection for her Me EP and Taste of Country notes, “Fans of every age will find a trio of lyrics to get behind.” Like her musical hero Dolly Parton, she embraces her country roots with pizazz. The Voice Season 2 alum has returned to the show to perform her new music and is featured on coach Blake Shelton’s latest album. She partnered with the National Association for Music Education, Give a Note Foundation and Radio Disney and wrote “Always Sing” to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Music in Our Schools Month.
