For Danielle Bradbery, success seemed to be in the cards from an early age. In 2013, her big voice, straight-from-the-gut delivery and precocious poise made her the US version of The Voice’s youngest winner ever at the age of 16. Since then, country fans have had a front-row seat for her artistic coming of age. Over the years, Bradbery has grown as a songwriter, tackling topics of increasing emotional intensity. She’s evolved stylistically as well, gradually shifting from a straight-ahead country sound to arrangements informed by cutting-edge developments in pop and R&B, all without abandoning her roots.
