Carrie Underwood

American singer and actor (born 1983)

In the history of music, Carrie Underwood is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Carrie Underwood as American singer and actor (born 1983).

Carrie Underwood was born at Oklahoma in 1983. Her recorded nationality is United States. She trained at Northeastern State University.

Streaming replaced the record industry's economics in this generation: reach became enormous and the income per listen very small.

She worked as singer, actor and singer-songwriter.

The instruments recorded are guitar, piano and voice.

Her work is classed as pop music, country music and country pop.

Performance is the most perishable art and recording the most durable; a career sits between the two.

Recognition followed: Grammy Award for Best New Artist (2007) and Grammy Award for Best Country Solo Performance (2015).

That the work came out of United States shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.

Carrie Underwood is still performing or recording, and the shape of the career is not yet settled.
