Early life
A Pennsylvania girl named Taylor Alison Swift was born on the 13th of December 1989 in the town of West Reading. She’s named after James Taylor, a musician. When she was younger, she lived with her parents and brother on a Christmas tree farm. A Montessori school for preschool and kindergarten, then The Wyndcroft School for first grade, was where she learned the fundamentals of reading and writing. When Taylor was nine years old, she became interested in the performing arts. In addition, she took acting and singing classes in New York City. Shania Twain was a big influence on her when she first discovered country music. Tween and teen years saw her perform at a number of local festivals and gatherings. After a while, she and her mother came to the conclusion that she had to go to Nashville and submit Taylor’s early demos of Dolly Parton and The Chicks covers to the label. As a result of this, Taylor decided to leave Nashville without a record deal.
Career
Swift’s debut song, “Tim McGraw,” was released a year after she signed with Big Machine Records and preceded the release of her debut studio album, which was also titled “Swift.” On the US Billboard 200 list, Taylor Swift climbed to number five, but she topped the US Country Music chart. The singles “Our Song” and “Should’ve Said No” both peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 upon release. The RIAA has certified her first album platinum more than four times.
