As an artist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist, Dunn quickly garnered attention, opening for major figures including Florida Georgia Line, Luke Bryan, Bob Seger, Chris Young, Miranda Lambert, Keith Urban, Hank Williams Jr., and Trace Adkins.

This partnership quickly bore fruit with the release of the single ‘Safe Haven’ on May 1, 2020, followed by ‘Salt and Lime’ on May 22, 2020. Her highly anticipated EP, ‘Honestly: A Personal Collection,’ was then released on June 12, 2020, representing her first major project under the Big Yellow Dog Music umbrella.
