One of my favorite parts of my job is meeting new artists on their way up. We had the opportunity to have Kelsea Ballerini visit our studio on Tuesday and perform a few songs for us and the K99 listeners. What a delightful and talented young lady.

Kelsea is singer/songwriter from Knoxville, TN. When she was only 15 years old, she moved to Nashville to chase her dreams. At age 19, Kelsea signed a publishing deal with Black River Publishing in 2013. Later that year, Kelsea signed a record deal with Black River Entertainment.

Her debut single, “Love Me Like You Mean It” is available now on iTunes. Give it a listen in this YouTube video:

Kelsea performed a few songs for Brian and me including "Dibs" in this YouTube video:

She also performed the song "XO"bin this YouTube video.
