Alana Springsteen (born October 16, 2000) is an American country music singer and songwriter. Springsteen grew up in Virginia Beach, VA with her parents and three younger brothers, where she started making music at an early age. She began playing guitar at age 7 and wrote her first song, called "Fairy Tale", at age 9. When she was 10 years old, Springsteen's family moved to Nashville, Tennessee to support her music career, and she secured a publishing deal at age 14. Some of her early performances were at minor league baseball games. Springsteen has said that both her grandfathers were pastors, and her father, Bill Springsteen, is a real estate investor. Despite having the same surname, Springsteen is not related to musician Bruce Springsteen. In 2019, Springsteen released her debut EP Slow Down with a single of the same name. In 2023, Springsteen released a series of three EPs, called messing it up, figuring it out, and getting it right. Those three EPs were later combined to form her first full-length album, Twenty Something, released in August 2023. The album included collaborations with two high-profile country musicians. Chris Stapleton was featured on "Ghost In My Guitar" and Mitchell Tenpenny was featured on "Goodbye Looks Good On You". The latter record was Springsteen's first to be certified RIAA Gold. Springsteen co-wrote all the songs on the album, along with other Nashville-based songwriters, including Liz Rose. Robin Hilton of NPR called the title track of Twent
