Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.
Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.
Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.
We may be almost half way through the year (how, please?), but 2023 still has a lot in store on the new music front. Over the coming months we're set to see some huge new album releases: from the latest in Taylor Swift's series of re-recordings (Speak Now: Taylor's Version) to big musical comebacks from Kylie Minogue (Tension), Blur (The Ballad of Darren), Arlo Parks (My Soft Machine) and Niall Horan (The Show).
Oh, and who could forget the small matter of Noel Gallagher going head-to-head with Foo Fighters in what's sure to be one of the tensest chart battles of the year?
