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.
Taylor Swift had undoubtedly the best year of her career, so far, in 2023. She is said to have sold more than 4.3 million tickets to her global Eras Tour, which kicked off last year, making her one of the highest-grossing touring artists, which helped establish her billionaire status.
She even was named Time Magazine's Person of the Year. Taylor, who has proven herself as the new queen of pop, has played in countless countries across the continents on her Eras Tour, playing in both North and South America, as well as stints in Europe and Asia.
Luckily for British Swifties, she is soon to make the UK her stage, playing 15 shows up and down the country from June to August.
Unfortunately, the Love Story singer-songwriter has not announced any Manchester dates, but she is playing three consecutive shows shows within about an hour's drive of Manchester.
