Taylor-Swift

Taylor Swift's name in full can be described as Taylor Alison Swift. Taylor Swift was born on December 13th, 1989 in West Reading, Pennsylvania U.S.A. Taylor Swift became an incredibly popular songwriter and singer at the beginning of 2001 when she began to write tales of heartache. Swift was a fan of the music scene from a very early childhood. She swiftly made her way up to the top of the ladder, beginning with roles in children's theater and then performing in front of crowds of people. The moment Swift performed The Star-Spangled Banner in front of an Philadelphia 76ers match at age 11 she had already begun composing songs. In the following year she started playing the guitar. Inspiring herself by country music artists such as Shania Twain and the Dixie Chicks (now the Chicks) Swift crafted original lyrics that expressed her feelings of growing up in a world that was dominated by tweens. Swift left Pennsylvania along with her parents in the state of Tennessee to Hendersonville when she reached 13 and decided to spend greater time in wooing the labels of country music in Nashville.
