Taylor Swift's Rise To The Top

By Cindy Lou Jackson

Born in the town of Wyomissing, PA on December 13th in 1989, Taylor Swift made her entrance into the world. Raised on a tree farm, Taylor was influence by her grandmother who was also a singer of opera. She was introduced and loved many country artists like Garth Brooks and Leeann Rimes. She was hooked at an early age.

Taylor's family was well aware of her love and determination to become a successful country singer from a very early age. She was always precocious and knew her own mind. They were very supportive of her and would make many trips to Nashville to try and help her get her foot in the door .

Taylor started making public appearances around the age of 10 years old. She began writing songs of her own when she was 12 and showed promise very early. An innate talent for music began showing and her mother was especially supportive of her budding talents.

Taylor's family moved with her to a place name Hendersonville, a suburb of Nashville when she was 14. She had just been given a publishing job, and at age 14 she was the youngest person ever to accomplish this.

Taylor got her big break when she came to the attention of Scott Borchetta, who signed her to his label Big Machine Records. She released her debut album in November in the year 2006 to rave reviews. It would go on to sell over 2 million copies and ensuring her sophomore album's production.

Taylor is the only female solo artist in country music to have written or co-written all of the songs on her debut album. Taylor's album, Taylor Swift, would eventually sell more than 2 million copies and launch the career of the hottest artist in music today.

Taylor is a fantastic live entertainer and has gotten many positive reviews for her live performances. She has toured with Brad Paisley and in 2009 will be seen in many cities with Rascal Flatts.

With Taylor's astonishing talent and ambition she will be an exciting artist to watch for many years to come. It wouldn't be imprudent to suggest that she has many more heights to reach in her young career. - 18780
