MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE
PHILADELPHIA — This isn't a bad time to be a teenage singer from Pennsylvania with the name Taylor.
That's what Taylor Bright, a 16-year-old from Mount Airy, Pa., just discovered when she took a serendipitous ride on the vapor trail of her slightly older superstar namesake, Taylor Swift.
With interest generated by a number of original songs she had posted on the Internet. Bright went over to England this month to do a modest school tour, singing three of her songs for grade schoolers in eight cities.
Then a newspaper in Liverpool misread her press release and reported that it was Taylor Swift who would be performing at a local Catholic elementary school. The misinformation was repeated to 44,000 fans over the public address system at a Premier League soccer match between Liverpool and Bolton.
The school was deluged with inquiries and Bright's appearance was canceled due to safety concerns.
But the case of mistaken identity made her an instant sensation, with numerous radio and TV outlets clamoring for interviews.
"I got over 200,000 hits on my
F
The high-spirited homemade video to her song "Striped Socks" was viewed more than 100,000 times on YouTube.
Web site," Bright says. "It shut down temporarily because too many people got on it. We had to expand the capacity."
The newly minted British pop star then returned home, where she's just another girl, hanging out with her friends in Philadelphia's Rittenhouse Square, shopping for clothes, taking SAT prep classes and shouldering the increased academic demands of junior year.
In some ways a typical teen, Bright is also a thoroughly modern success story in the making, a testament to the DIY potential of the Internet.
After gaining extensive theater experience, including a year-long national tour at age 12 as one of the orphans in "Annie," Bright began writing pop songs in her bedroom.
"First, I write the lyrics," she says. "I use Garage Band on my Mac and sing into the computer. My brother created a fake studio in the basement."
