Forbes Women says that Taylor Swift is the artist of the moment, and we\u2019re not one to say otherwise. She is the female artist with the most number one albums in history and has a net worth of 1.1 billion dollars.<\/p>\n

Also, \u2018The Eras Tour\u2019 has had a great economic impact that can be seen in figures: Trainline calculates that those attending the concerts on her US tour spent an average of 1,300 euros per show, adding tickets, travel and hospitality.<\/p>\n

This Wednesday and Thursday the artist will perform at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u (Madrid) and the swifties have been camping out at the venue for days. But how did she become \u2018the new queen of pop\u2019?<\/p>\n

There is no doubt that she is a great songwriter and turns everything she touches into gold. But let\u2019s not forget that behind all that effort there was a great support: her parents.<\/p>\n

Just as Taylor is an expert on stage, selling more than four million tickets on \u2018The Eras Tour\u2019 in the United States, her parents are experts in business.<\/p>\n

This aspect has been fundamental in Taylor\u2019s first push to land on the music scene, as thanks to their business, financial and marketing skills, her parents have literally been the \u2018godparents\u2019 of the mass phenomenon that Taylor Swift is now.<\/p>\n

Father and financial supervisor<\/h1>\n

Following his background in finance and his stockbroking, Scott Swift served until 2019 as a vice president at Merrill Lynch, one of Wall Street\u2019s largest investment banks.<\/p>\n

This talent for numbers with a more than sturdy financial background came in handy in boosting his daughter\u2019s early career.<\/p>\n

In addition to becoming a key supporter, Scott took the reins of the financial aspects of Taylor\u2019s musical career, which allowed the first push towards a proper projection of her professional interests in a difficult industry such as the music industry.<\/p>\n

Thanks to this financial base, the family had no qualms about moving to Nashville when their daughter decided she wanted to be a country singer.<\/p>\n

Even though Taylor is now independent and the new \u2018queen of pop\u2019 with a billion dollars in her bank account, her parents\u2019 support still plays an important role.<\/p>\n

They were recently spotted at the opening night of her \u2018The Eras Tour\u2019 in March 2023, at the premiere of the film of the same tour, The Eras Tour Concert, this past October and at one of the concerts in Buenos Aires, together with her daughter\u2019s current partner, American football player Travis Kelce.<\/p>\n

Mother and creative director<\/h1>\n

Her mother, Andrea, was a marketing director at an advertising agency, and her knowledge has also been fundamental in selling the product that her daughter was initially creating with her guitar and her country-based lyrics.<\/p>\n

With a stable financial base, a good advisor and a professional branding and advertising professional, the result could not be other than a solid and very prosperous business, and that is what Taylor has become.<\/p>\n

Like her husband, Andrea\u2019s support is essential to the singer and she is always with her whenever she can, despite her health problems. On three occasions she has been diagnosed with cancer, from which she has emerged victorious.<\/p>\n

Taylor has always shown her love and support for her mother and her family in general, both on social media and in song (\u2018Soon You\u2019ll Get Better\u2019).<\/p>\n

Her daughter has a natural talent for music, but her parents have a natural talent for success, and even when choosing her name, they thought about her professional future.<\/p>\n

Taylor is a neutral name that can refer to either male or female, and that is \u2018a positive trait on a face card for being a business person in a business world\u2019, as Taylor herself told Rolling Stone in 2009.<\/p>\n

A star is born<\/h1>\n

Andrea and Scott raised their two sons, Taylor (1989) and Austin (1992), on a Christmas tree farm in Wyoming, Pennsylvania, later moving to another house in the same town.<\/p>\n

From an early age, Taylor demonstrated his musical abilities, as his father recounted in a 2009 interview with the University of Delaware newspaper: \u2018He was always singing when he was 3, 5, 6, 7 years old.<\/p>\n

It was Taylor doing what she loves\u201d, and for this very reason, in 2003, they decided to move to Tennessee, just outside Nashville, to get this natural talent off the ground.<\/p>\n

A young Taylor, knocking on the door of Music Row, known as the epicentre of Nashville\u2019s country music industry, said, \u2018Hi, I\u2019m Taylor. I\u2019m 11 years old.<\/p>\n

I want a record deal, call me,\u2019 she revealed to Entertainment Weekly in 2008. Although she wasn\u2019t called back, Taylor Swift became the youngest artist ever signed under the Sony\/ATV Music Publishing House wing, at just 14 years old on Big Machine Records.<\/p>\n
