“Something I needed was written about a guy I didn’t need. My number one personal influence is Jennifer Nettles. She’s my mama of music. I also love Miranda Lambert and Mariah Carey. I love how they write in a sarcastic tone; it’s really relatable.”
The track could find a home on Spotify’s ‘Hot Country,’ ‘New Boots,’ ‘Wild Country,’ ‘Country Rocks,’ and ‘Texas Music Now’ playlists.”
Check out Tiana Green’s latest track, “Still Young,” where her unique sound blends the essence of Taylor Swift with the freshness of Olivia Rodrigo, yet she carves out her own distinct style within the mix. Breaking free like rebels, we stormed the school gates, live like there is nothing to lose,” sings Tiana. “You’re only young once, so live it up—simple as that
Tiana says, “I want people to listen to my music and feel genuine emotion; to move people and give them something to believe in, that’s the goal. There are so many different moments in life, and it’s in these moments that I find the passion to write music and capture it in a melody of poetic words”
As far as the creative process, Tiana notes, “She explains, “I can’t just sit down and write a song. What happens is I feel the energy in the air, a word pops up in my mind, a simple tune gets stuck in my head, a buzz of creativity fills my soul, instruments start to fill the holes, and that’s when I know I have to drop everything and go write a song. They float in the air just waiting to be selected to be brought to life.”
