Colbie Caillat was barely out of her teens when she established herself as one of America's premier singers and songwriters. She released her first album, Coco, in 2007, just weeks before her 22nd birthday. The album debuted at Number 5 on the Billboard magazine charts, driven by the hit single 'Bubbly,' and quickly sold over two million units. Billboard named her the 'Breakthrough Artist of the Year.' Her second album, fittingly titled Breakthrough, debuted at Number 1 and confirmed her status as a hitmaker. Caillat won two Grammys that year, for 'Lucky,' a duet with Jason Mraz, and for co-writing Taylor Swift's hit 'Breathe.' In 2010, she was named 'Songwriter of the Year' by Broadcast Music International (BMI). She closed out the year by performing at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo, Norway. In 2011, she released her third album, All of You, with its hit singles, 'I Do' and 'Brighter Than the Sun.' To date, she has sold over six million albums and ten million singles worldwide. Her fourth album, Christmas in the Sand, appeared in 2012. As a youth delegate to the 2012 International Achievement Summit, Colbie Caillat performed a number of her songs at the Banquet of the Golden Plate, held at the Willard Hotel in Washington, D.C. This podcast combines highlights of that performance with excerpts from an interview with Colbie Caillat, recorded by the Academy of Achievement.
