Taylor-Swift

Taylor Swift, in full Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13 1989 West Reading Pennsylvania U.S.) American pop and country musician and singer whose tales of youthful heartache earned her widespread popularity in the first decade of the 20th century. Swift was a fan of music since a young stage of her life. She swiftly rose through the ranks, beginning with roles in children's theater and then performing before a large crowd. Swift began to compose songs when she was 11. She sang The Star-Spangled Banner for a Philadelphia 76ers basketball game. Swift was inspired to create her own music by the music of country genre such as Shania Twain or the Dixie Chicks. Swift's parents relocated her to Tennessee at the age of 13 when they decided to sell their Pennsylvania farm. The move enabled Swift to be more active in trying to find labels that would promote the country genre in Nashville.
