About Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato moved from acting in Camp Rock into a recording career with the 2008 debut Don't Forget and the 2009 follow-up Here We Go Again. Later albums Unbroken, Demi and Confident expanded from the early guitar-based sound into pop, dance-oriented production and vocal ballads. Tell Me You Love Me followed in 2017. Standalone recordings such as Sober and Anyone sit alongside that album catalog, while HOLY FVCK returned to a heavier guitar setting in 2022. The original studio releases document several distinct musical approaches.
