Callista Clark is releasing her debut collection Real To Me today (Feb. 12) via Big Machine Records. The lead off single from the project, “It’s Cause I Am,” will impact country radio on March 29.

Clark first stepped onstage to perform with Jennifer Nettles at 12 years old and is a skilled musician who plays eight instruments. She’s already amassed over 65 million views on Facebook and six million views on YouTube with her inspiring videos, which eventually caught the attention of Scott Borchetta (Big Machine Label Group) and her now manager Scooter Braun (SB Projects).

Working with producer Nathan Chapman, the 17-year-old Clark has crafted a debut that showcases both her skills as a writer and her heart-in-throat vocal delivery through the feisty anthem of “Change My Mind,” the poignant and relatable truths of “Real to Me,” and the declaration of confidence in the new single “It’s Cause I Am.” She also wrote with heavyweight writers Jonathan Singleton, Chris DeStefano, Liz Rose, Laura Veltz and more for her debut.

“These songs are all very real and very personal for me,” admits Clark. “There is some heavy emotion behind all of these, and I hope that somebody can relate to them. I really do.”

1. “It’s Cause I Am” | Callista Clark, Cameron Jaymes, Laura Veltz
2. “Heartbreak Song” | Callista Clark, Chris DeStefano, Liz Rose, Emily Shackelton
