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.

The Brighton native - real name Riley Davies - has been on an unstoppable ascent since 2021 became his big breakout year, with with three UK Top 10 singles taking him from husting teenager to one of the biggest rising stars in the UK.

The first taste of that comes with Home For My Heart, his surprising acoustic-led new single which features vocals from BRIT nominated singer-songwriter Cat Burns, a tender dedication to ArrDee's rise to fame and his attempts to lay down roots somewhere he can call his own.

"I was having a conversation with a producer," ArrDee tells us over Zoom from his Brighton home, "who said his biggest idea of success is if a man makes a mixtape for his girlfriend and puts one of his songs on there, because it means something to the guy." Watch the stirring video for ArrDee and Cat Burns' Home For My Heart now It's 100% a change in tempo and, like you said, a change in production, a change in style.
