Power pop vocal group 1GN is poised to take the world by storm. After causing a stir with its 2013 self-titled debut album 1 Girl Nation, which produced such catchy pop hits as "While We're Young," the dancy EDM-infused "Vertical," and the heart-filled "Count Your Rainbows," the girls became an instant sensation with teens and tweens. The debut album reached No. 2 on Billboard's "Heatseeker Albums" chart, and No. 9 on its "Top Christian Albums" list, causing a response so dramatic that the group earned a "New Artist of the Year" nomination in the 45th Annual Dove Awards.
This time around, after losing two members and enduring many challenges, the girls have reemerged with a powerful and more focused message. Now a trio, comprised of Carmen Hadley, Kayli Robinson, and Lauryn Taylor Bach, the group changed its official name from "1 Girl Nation" to "1GN," reflecting the act's maturing sound and appeal to ever-widening audiences.
Carmen explains, "Our message is going to be more impacting than ever because we ourselves have been through the 'fire.' We understand more about what our fans are going through, and hopefully, we can really engage them with songs and ideas that really speak to them."
