Robyn Ottolini

In country music, the very best narratives are almost always lifted from life’s messy playbook. Evocatively, sometimes playfully articulating everyday wins and losses is something of a songwriting super-power, and it’s one wholly possessed by the Nashville-based, platinum-selling artist, Robyn Ottolini.

 Over five years, a quintet of EPs, and multiple dazzling singles, the trucker’s daughter from a blue-collar Canadian town has amassed more than 160 million streams – 60 million alone for her rip-snorting heartbreak smash “F-150,” which incinerated TikTok while cementing Ottolini’s status as a supremely relatable lyricist able to make the ordinary scan as extraordinary. Robyn is not only a CCMA Award winner, but has reached the #3 spot on Rolling Stones’ All Genre Viral Chart, and had three Top 40 singles on Billboard’s Canadian country chart. Ottolini has seen the likes of some of country music’s biggest festivals, and headlined shows across her native country, as well as opened up for Shania Twain, Tim McGraw, Breland and Tyler Rich, just to name a few. 

 Now, Robyn Ottolini is proudly independent and unrestrained, releasing a clutch of electrifying, lived-in originals. Her latest release, a demo of “Growing Down,” has already taken on a life of its own, after a minute-long clip sparked an explosive reaction on TikTok and fans connected instantly with its rawness and authenticity. The track’s momentum – fuelled by 15,000+ fan-created videos and a powerful wave of people sharing their own stories – is already outpacing the early numbers of “F-150.” The release follows last year’s fan-favourite “Airplane Bottle,” as Ottolini continues building toward her highly anticipated debut album.
