Colbie Caillat - BreakthroughThis 24-year-old Malibu native was born with a platinum spoon in her mouth: her father, Ken Caillat, co-produced Fleetwood Mac’s best-selling Rumours and Tusk albums and Colbie grew up surrounded by such iconic musicians. But Colbie’s more than a spoiled industry brat. Her first album, Coco, was the work of a fresh talent with bubbly, original songs. Colbie’s sophomore is a more polished pop affair, with heart-on-the-sleeve confessionals like “Realize,” “Fearless” and the romantic surrender of “Fallin’ for You.”
