Taylor Early Years
She quickly moved from playing parts in children’s theater to performing in front of tens of thousands of people. When she was 11, she sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” before a Philadelphia 76ers basketball game. The next year, she learned how to play the guitar and started writing songs.
She wrote original songs that showed how she felt when she was a teen and felt alone. When Swift was 13, her parents sold their farm in Pennsylvania and moved to Hendersonville, Tennessee. This gave her more time to try to get signed to country labels in Nashville, which is close by. Swift met people who worked in the music business for the first time through a development deal with RCA Records.
When she was 14, she signed with Sony/ATV as a songwriter. She played many of the songs she had written at venues in the Nashville area. It was at one of these shows that record producer Scott Borchetta noticed her. Borchetta signed Swift to his new Big Machine label. In the summer of 2006, her first single, “Tim McGraw,” came out. It was based on and made a lot of references to a song by Swift’s favorite country act.
Swift Career
Taylor started working with singer Liz Rose in Nashville. They met every Tuesday after school for two hours to write. Soon after, she was signed by Sony/ATV as their youngest singer, but she quit the group when she was 14.
In 2005, Swift caught the eye of Scott Borchetta, a record producer who was getting ready to start his own record label called Big Machine Records. They met at a show at Nashville’s Bluebird Cafe. She was one of the first people signed by Big Machine, and her father bought a 3% stake in the company.
The lead song “Tim McGraw” came out in June 2006, and Taylor Swift’s self-titled album came out later that same year, on October 24, 2006. It spent 275 weeks at number 5 on the US Billboard 200, where it reached its highest point. Swift also opened for Brad Paisley on his 2007 tour to promote her album. In 2006 and 2007, she promoted her album on radio and TV and opened for country stars in the US.
When she won BMI Songwriter of the Year in 2007, she was the youngest person to ever receive the award. The CMAs, ACMs, and AMAs all gave her awards, and the 50th Grammys put her in the running for Best New Artist.
