Editor's note

Savannah Outen, a YouTube voice from Portland

Her viral 2009 cover of "Stop and Stare" launched a run of personal, self-released albums.

For her own writing, try "Unlock the Door." To hear where it began, her version of "Stop and Stare" is still the clip that explains everything.

Outen's story is a piece of early YouTube music culture, when a teenager's cover could suddenly reach millions. Her original songs like "Unlock the Door" and "Sad In The Summer" document that shift from interpreter to writer. She kept it small-scale, recording with a rotating cast of players and putting out albums herself.

It started with that One Republic cover in 2009, which brought some legal headaches before she settled in. She followed with three albums in the early 2010s, her self-titled debut, then "Paper Heart" and "Half Truths." The music drew from her own life, but she's been quieter publicly since around 2015.

Archive material and source history

Savannah Outen first gained attention in 2009 with a YouTube cover of One Republic's "Stop and Stare" that went viral. She was born in Portland, Oregon in 1992 and had been writing songs since her teens. That cover led to some legal issues with the original label, which were eventually settled.

She released her self-titled debut album in 2011, followed by "Paper Heart" in 2013 and "Half Truths" in 2015. Her original songs include "Unlock the Door," "Be Original," and "Sad In The Summer." She's also known for covering songs by artists like Miley Cyrus, Celine Dion, and Pink.

At various points, she's performed with musicians including Chris Seefried on guitar, Wyatt Harmon on bass, Patrick Carney on drums, and Joe Sundberg on keyboards. Her music tends to draw from personal experiences, though she hasn't maintained a constant public presence in recent years.
