All Ages

Katelyn Tarver has never shied away from the truth — even when it hurts. On her third full-length album,Tell Me How You Really Feel (Nettwerk), the Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and actress chronicles the raw process of self-reinvention after the end of her decade-long marriage, turning heartbreak into hard-won clarity. The result is an intimate collection of indie pop confessional that feel like overheard conversations — honest, unguarded, insightful, and deeply human.

Written with a renowned cast of co-writers and recorded with Grammy-nominated producer Mikey Reaves (Luke Combs, Jelly Roll) and Chad Copelin (Sasha Alex Sloan, Sufjan Stevens), the album captures the tension between freedom and fear on songs like “IDGAF”, “Strange Weather” and “Trust Myself”. It’s a rebirth — vulnerable, hopeful, and achingly self-aware.

A Georgia native, Tarver first made waves with her viral 2017 anthem “You Don’t Know,” which has amassed over 87 million Spotify streams. Her acclaimed projects Subject to Change (2021) and Quitter (2024) cemented her as a rising voice in emotional indie pop. Praised by Billboard, NYLON, FLOOD, Atwood Magazine, and LADYGUNN as “a captivating storyteller who fearlessly dives into life’s complex questions,” Tarver continues to merge diaristic honesty with cinematic melodies. Katelyn has also captivated audiences with powerful live performances. She has notably shared the stage with James Bay, Donovan Woods, and Elle King, while she marked a full-circle moment touring with Big Time Rush on the 2025 “IN REAL LIFE WORLDWIDE” tour. 

Simultaneously, she shined on screen with key roles on HBO’s Ballers, ABC Family’s The Secret Life of the American Teenager, ABC’s No Ordinary Family, and Nickelodeon’s Big Time Rush in addition to emerging victorious as a contestant on NBC’s Songland. Most recently, she joined Will Ferrell, Molly Shannon, Jimmy Tatro, and Fortune Feimster as part of the cast for NETFLIX’s #1 hit series The Hawk, which premiered July 16, 2026.

With Tell Me How You Really Feel, Katelyn Tarver invites listeners into her most personal chapter yet — one defined by truth, transformation, and the courage to begin again.
