She'll release her debut EP with the label, Bad Intentions, on September 23.
Heaton doesn't just sing covers. Here's "Sober," a new original song, which is premiering today on BuzzFeed:
"I wrote this song about my own personal pain regarding drug and alcohol abuse," Heaton said. The song, which will appear on her EP, is "about witnessing the pain behind addiction and not being able to change it. It's about the torment and suffering that not only surrounds the addict, but all those affected by the aftermath. Sometimes love is not enough to save someone."
