Meet Baylee

A powerhouse talent with girl-next-door charm, 18-year-old singer/songwriter Baylee Lynn is one of country’s most promising new voices. As a little girl growing up in the small Tennessee town of Greeneville, the newly Nashville-based artist taught herself to play guitar at just six years old and soon took up piano. Hailing from a long line of musicians, she began singing in church with her parents and penned her first song at 13, mining inspiration from country queens like Dolly Parton. After making her debut in summer 2025 with the carefree yet deeply candid “Cautiously Optimistic” (hailed by Billboard as “an incredibly charming opening statement that…harkens back to the turn-of-the-century country-pop stylings of Faith Hill and the Chicks”), she brought her soulful brand of country-pop to a triumphant streak of singles: the sassy but sensitive “John, Dear,” the shimmering self-worth anthem “Heart On My Sleeve,” the riff-heavy and rowdy “Heard That,” and “That’s What I’ll Be” (a bittersweet stunner featured on the star-studded Nobody Wants This Season 2: The Soundtrack). After releasing the unrequited-love ballad “You Didn’t Love Me” in late February, Baylee embarked on a 14-date run as support for viral sensation Maddox Batson, bringing her dazzling live set to major cities all over North America. Out now, her debut EP Heart On My Sleeve stakes her claim as an unstoppable force in country’s next generation.
