Her lyrics capture a wide range of human emotions—love, heartbreak, growth, and self-discovery—in ways that resonate across generations. Beyond her storytelling, she is a master of reinvention, seamlessly shifting genres from country to pop to indie-folk, all while maintaining authenticity. Her connection with fans, transparency about her life and struggles, and commitment to artistry and control over her work further cement her as not just a musician, but a cultural icon whose influence extends far beyond the charts.

My Favorite Songs

I Can Do It With a Broken Heart

I Can Do It With a Broken Heart

'Cause I'm a real tough kid, I can handle my shit. They said, "Babe, you gotta fake it till you make it" and I did. Lights, camera, bitch smile, even when you wanna die.

Peter

Peter

And you said you'd come and get me, but you were 25. And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired. Lost to the Lost Boys chapter of your life.

The Prophecy

The Prophecy

And I sound like an infant. Feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen. A greater woman stays cool. But I howl like a wolf at the moon. And I look unstable. Gathered with a coven round a sorceress' table. A greater woman has faith. But even statues crumble if they're made to wait.
