Nobody outworks Butte Central junior Caden Tippett when she is competing in a sport. She might not lead the team in points on the basketball court, but she leads the state in floor burns from diving for loose balls.

She might not be the fastest mountain bike rider on Butte’s Copper Sprockets youth racing team, but she is fearless enough to be known for taking headers while riding as fast as she can downhill.

She just might lead the state in road rash. Caden has only one gear, and that is all out. She also has the voice of an angel.

That voice is on display in Caden’s first single, “Ghost,” by Caden Lee, her stage name. The song was released on Spotify, Apple Music or wherever you get your music on Saturday, April 5.

Caden, who can be seen in the Orphan Girl Children’s Theatre performance of “Something Rotten” this Thursday through Sunday, seems destined for big things. She plans to go to school for music and acting, and we already know she has the work ethic to pull off whatever she sets her mind to. Caden somehow crams 30 hours into every day.

She recorded and worked on the production of her single “Ghost” with Butte Central band director Russ Nelson while she was playing basketball for the Maroons. She is working hard to improve her numbers in the shot put and discus while cramming in hour after hour to get ready for a play.

Yesterday, Caden competed in one event at a track meet hosted by Butte High, then raced up town to rehearse her play.

Listen in to this podcast as Caden talks about her busy life and how much she loves competing in sports, performing on stage and signing her songs. Listen as she talks the process of writing and performing the song that has been in the works for quite some time.

Listen to hear her plans for the music video, which will likely be released early next month.

Listen as she talks about her work ethic, which could be attributed to the Tippett or Stillwagon side of her family. Then, make sure to check out Caden’s first single.
