Catie Turner has signed a distribution deal with TikTok’s SoundOn platform, pairing her independent momentum with one of the most powerful music discovery engines in the world. The partnership builds on an already proven relationship. Her breakout single “God Must Hate Me” first gained serious traction on TikTok, climbing past 100 million streams and introducing her candid, sharply observed songwriting to a global audience. SoundOn gives her the reach to go further while keeping creative control firmly in her hands.
Alongside the announcement, Turner releases a new Audiotree Live session featuring five tracks: “I Might,” “Not Young Just Dumb,” “Shrinking Violet,” “God Must Hate Me,” and “Tourist Attraction.” Stripped back and filmed in Audiotree’s intimate studio setting, the session is Turner at her most direct. She moves between vulnerability and wit with ease, and her vocal delivery and lyricism land with the kind of emotional weight that doesn’t need production to prop it up.
Turner first came to national attention on American Idol with her original song “21st Century Machine,” and has since built a catalog that spans 200 million career streams, one million social followers, and praise from Rolling Stone and Ones To Watch. Previous releases “Comedown,” “Friends,” and “Last Name” kept that trajectory moving, and new music is on the way under the SoundOn deal. With creative independence and platform-powered distribution locked in, Turner enters 2026 with real wind behind her.
