Katelyn Tarver is no stranger to the spotlight. Her songs have amassed over 200 million streams, led by her viral hit “You Don’t Know.” She has an impressive resume of songwriting credits, having co-written Cheryl Cole’s #1 Single “Crazy Stupid Love” and Old Dominion’s single “Young,” which was a winning track on NBC’s Songland. She’s also built a stellar acting resume, appearing in shows like HBO’s "Ballers," ABC Family’s "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" and Nickelodeon's "Big Time Rush." Katelyn is hitting the road this fall in the US, Canada, UK and Europe, touring in support of her new releases for the first time as a headliner. “‘Quitter’ is about wanting to stop living for other people’s expectations of me, or for my younger self’s expectations of what my life should be like now,” Tarver says. “It’s about growing and changing, but in a way that’s celebrating it instead of being scared of what the change might bring. That’s really what I wanted this album to encapsulate as a whole: the idea that, yes, there’s a lot of heaviness that comes with trying to figure these things out, but letting go of all those expectations can shed some of that heaviness. It’s about tapping into the freedom that comes with saying, ‘I don’t have to abide by any of those old rules. I can make the rules up myself.’”
