She rose to prominence after winning the fourth season of American Idol in 2005. I want it to be a way to connect with people."Ĭarrie Underwood's new album Storyteller is out worldwide on October 23.Carrie Marie Underwood (born March 10, 1983) is an American country singer. I don't know, it's like, if I have something to share, I'll share it. "I think I'm pretty conservative and I try not to over think it as far as - some people you follow and it's almost like their PR team is putting out stuff, and some people post 50 things a day. It's come with its challenges, of course, but those two things are the biggest changes in the music industry."Īre you wary about social media and what you post to your millions of followers? Connecting with fans has been really great. And social media has been introduced within the past 10 years. "The whole digital revolution has been in everybody's mind - everyone trying to keep up and trying to figure things out. What are the biggest differences in the music industry from when you first started out to now? You've been recording music for a decade now. There's a couple of songs in the album that are looked at from a parent's perspective.

It makes certain songs that I've been singing for years have new meaning. "Yeah, it's a whole new group of people to be able to relate to, because you don't know what it's like to be a parent until you're a parent. I mean, I'm still me! The core of me is still there. I feel like people kind of expected me to come out with a mommy album - I don't know, all songs about my kid and being a mom. "I feel like being a mom is just another added dimension to me as a songwriter and as a person. How much did motherhood affect the way you approached your work? Our goal in my team and what we've always talked about is making country music that everybody can like, you know." I don't really do remixes or things like that - I just never have. That's my home, and that's where I want to stay. "That's not really my goal, that's not me at all. Have you ever considered going full pop like Taylor Swift has in recent years? We sing about life."Ī lot of your songs also have a pop edge to them as well. I mean, we definitely have songs on the album that are completely made of mini-movies in song form - that's one of the things that we can do that I feel like other genres don't really try to do. It's real people singing about real stuff. "Yeah, that's part of what country music is. Was that what you were going for when writing your new album Storyteller? The song is very relatable - and a lot of other people are saying that too. I have my little things that are just for me, nobody's talking to me or at me." I like to wake up early enough to make breakfast and kind of sit and think about what's going to happen for the day. "I love a good glass of red wine at the end of the day! Even a cup of coffee in the morning before everything gets crazy. Your new single 'Smoke Break' is a metaphorical title for unwinding after a tough day, so what helps you relax?

You never know why one works and why one doesn't." But there's just a lot of talent-type competitions. You have American Idol, you have The Voice, you have America's Got Talent, and I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting. "You never know what's going to take off and what's not - but I do think maybe over-saturation. The X Factor is popular in the UK, but when it was brought to the US, it didn't have the same impact. And whatever happens after that, it's up to fate." You've just got to have a lot of luck on your side! It's an opportunity, so when you go and try out and you're a contestant, and you win or you don't win, it's just an opportunity. I was lucky enough to be immediately paired with some really amazing people that are still a part of the team. I guess the stars have to align just right. "Just because you're on a show like that does not guarantee immediate or long-lasting success. You've been one of a relatively rare few who's managed an enduring career in music coming from a talent show, so what's the key to being successful? Now with over 65 million record sales worldwide - and a growing presence here in the UK - she's one of the biggest stars on the country music scene. Which is why Carrie Underwood is on a mission to change your minds.Īfter winning the fourth season of American Idol back in 2005, the 32-year-old singer-songwriter has released four chart-topping albums, including several multi-platinum sellers back home in the US. Think "country music", and you may start picturing cowboy boots and plaid shirts.
