When she was an infant, her parents gave her the nickname "Coco", which she would later name her debut album.[7]

Caillat took piano lessons as a child, but lacked significant inspiration until she turned 11 years old, when she became enthralled with

Sister Act 2.[8] She realized that she wanted to be a singer, and began taking vocal lessons, performing onstage for the first time in sixth grade.[9] Since then she has covered the Roberta Flack song "Killing Me Softly", which had previously been covered by Lauryn Hill

She auditioned for American Idol but was rejected at the pre-audition stage and was unable to sing for the judges.[10] The second time she auditioned for the show, she sang her own original song, "Bubbly", and was rejected once again. However, Caillat expressed gratitude at the judges' decision, saying "I was shy. I was nervous. I didn't look the greatest. I wasn't ready for it yet. I was glad, when I auditioned, that they said no."[11]

MySpace profile led her to become the number-one unsigned singer in her genre for four consecutive months.[12]

Artistry

Caillat has a contralto vocal range.[83][84] According to Apple Music, Caillat is best known for offering the folk-pop genre a 21st-century sound,[85] although her music has also been described as pop soul.[86] Jill Renae Hicks of the Columbia Daily Tribune describer her music as "sunny", frequently characterized by "beachy, ray-soaked tunes filled with bouncy guitars and upbeat percussion ... fronted by the singer’s California-drawl alto".[87] Reuters found her style to be reminiscent of female musicians from the late-1970s, namely Karla Bonoff and Nicolette Larson, and considers her timbre and tone to be similar to that of Sheryl Crow.[88] She has experimented with genres such as rock, hip-hop, country, R&B, and dance music, particularly on her fifth studio album Gypsy Heart.[84] A writer for The Plain Dealer theorized that jazz influences are evident in the singer's "proclivity for pseudo-scatting".[83]

According to several publications, Caillat was arguably the first successful music artist to be discovered on MySpace.[89] Some journalists nicknamed her the "Queen of Myspace" due to her popularity on the platform.[90][91][86] Caillat considers herself a songwriter first and foremost.[92] She described songwriting as "this amazing therapy that you can do on your own, and people can relate to the songs that you write".[93] She has said she enjoys writing in bathrooms due to their echoey acoustics, which allow her to sing softer than she would otherwise.[94] She called Jason Reeves her favorite person to write with, and has frequently co-written with Kara DioGuardi, Toby Gad and Jason Mraz.[92] The singer's lyrics have discussed themes such as self-empowerment, with the writer mentioning that her lyrics "all have a level of deftness ... that goes light years beyond the typical fare of I love you, and such".[83] Reviewing a 2008 concert, a writer for Reuters called her songwriting underwhelming and generic.[88]

Caillat has spoken about suffering from stage fright earlier in her career,[95][96][97] an experience she wrote about in her song "One Fine Line".[94] She was promoted in the press as a shy "an online sensation who suffered from a fair share of stage fright".[95] Critics such as Brian Passey of The Spectrum noticed she had overcome her stage fright by 2017.[98]

Personal life

Caillat was in a relationship with singer Justin Young from 2009 to 2020. The two were engaged in May 2015.[99] They announced that they had ended their engagement in April 2020.[100]

In 2010, Caillat posed nude for the May issue of Allure magazine, alongside Emmanuelle Chriqui, Regina Hall, Kara DioGuardi, and Jessica Capshaw.[101]

Caillat supports various charities including Farm Sanctuary, United Service Organizations, Wish Upon A Hero, MusiCares, Earth's Call Fund, the Humane Society of the United States, and WE Charity.[102][103][104][105]
