      Early life


      Kerrie Roberts grew up in Florida; her parents were a pastor and a church choir director. Kerrie Roberts spent a lot of time in the church during her childhood. She began performing music at the age of 5, singing in her mother's church choir. According to her YouTube autobiography, she was so small that she had to stand on a milk crate in order for the congregation to see her. The experience eventually led to her playing piano and leading worship music in the church. Roberts' music revolved around her family church until high school, at which point she began writing her own songs. She continued to write songs while a student at the University of Miami; she majored in studio music and jazz vocal.


      Music career


      In 2001, Roberts appeared in the first U.S. installment of the singing competition show PopStars which aired on The WB. She made it past multiple auditions and boot camps to achieve a spot in the top 10 finalists. Despite being what show runners called one of the “strongest (six) singers”, Roberts removed herself from the competition before final selections, saying that she had prayed about it and decided the image of the group among other things was not right for her or what she wanted to do.
      Roberts began her music career after college. Her first release was a standalone single called "It Is Well with Me". The single was released independently in September 2005.
      She released her album Kerrie Roberts and it peaked on the Billboard's Christian Albums chart at No. 27. Three singles from the album charted on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart; "No Matter What" hit No. 9, "Outcast" at No. 29, and "Take You Away" at No. 28.
      "Rescue Me (How the Story Ends)" was used in promos for the ABC drama Once Upon a Time, which began airing in the U.S. on Sunday October 23, 2011. The song debuted on the Australian ARIA Charts at No. 49 in 2012, before dropping from the chart.
      On April 2, 2013, Roberts released her second full-length recording: Time for the Show. On December 16, 2014, she released an EP: My Heart's Lifted.
      Roberts released her first full-length recording in four years: Boundless. on March 17, 2017.
