Biography

Liz Rose was born in Dallas, Texas and raised in Irving, Texas.[1] Rose moved to Nashville, Tennessee with her then-husband, Johnny Rose, and began writing songs through the suggestion of a friend. One of her first cuts was "Elisabeth," which was recorded by Billy Gilman.[1] In 2003, Gary Allan took Rose's "Songs About Rain" (co-written with Pat McLaughlin) into the country top 20.[1]

Rose began writing songs with Taylor Swift on Swift's 2006 self-titled debut album, on which Rose has seven co-writer's credits.[2] Among those cuts were the album's first two singles, "Tim McGraw" and "Teardrops on My Guitar," which helped Rose win a Songwriter of the Year award from SESAC in 2007.[3]

Rose continued to collaborate with Swift on her second album, 2008's Fearless, collaborating on the singles "White Horse" and "You Belong with Me"[4] as well as the title track. "White Horse" won both of them the Grammy Award for Best Country Song in 2010,[5] and "You Belong with Me" was nominated for Song of the Year.[6] Liz also worked on other great tracks like Love Story, which hit #1 charts nationally. http://www.ew.com/article/2015/04/19/american-country-music-awards-taylor-swift

On Swift's fourth album, 2012's Red, Rose co-wrote one song, entitled "All Too Well."[7]

She has also worked with songwriting for Swedish country singer Jill Johnson[8] and Nashville-based band Mockingbird Sun, co-writing their second single "Lucky Guy".[9]

Her daughter is country/Americana artist Caitlin Rose.[10]
