While attending college at UCSB, she gravitated toward music and songwriting classes, and finally moved to Los Angeles to try the music scene there. Her demos found their way to producer Humberto Gatica, and Turner began cutting tracks with Gatica and producer David Foster, but she decided it wasn't the musical direction she wanted to take. She moved to Nashville after five years in L.A., turning her attention entirely to country music. In possession of a strong, husky voice and a passion for writing songs, she came to the attention of Columbia Nashville, signing a recording contract with the imprint in the summer of 2013. Her debut single, the catchy "Take the Keys," was released by the label later that fall. ~ Steve Leggett
