Killie finished sixth on the fifth season of the Fox television series American Idol, and in 2006, signed to BNA Records as a recording artist. Her debut album Small Town Girl was released in late 2006. The album, which was certified gold by the RIAA, produced three singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts: "Red High Heels" at #15, "I Wonder" at #14, and "Things That Never Cross a Man’s Mind" at #16.

After her elimination from Idol, she appeared in numerous shows promoting the TV show and performed the song "Walkin’ After Midnight" in some of her appearances.

Pickler has pursued her recording aspirations in Nashville, Tennessee shortly thereafter. On July 17, 2006 she signed a record deal with 19 Recordings/BNA Records. She later announced it herself on The View. She was part of the American Idol Pop Tarts tour ensemble, performing for three months in various cities. During that period, Pickler worked on her album in collaboration with top industry experts in different cities wherever the tour took her.

Her first single, "Red High Heels", debuted on September 13, 2006 and its music video was officially released on October 20, 2006. It reached #1 on the GAC Top 20 Countdown on February 9th and received a nomination for the CMT Video Awards for "Best Breakthrough Artist Video". Her debut album, Small Town Girl, released on October 31, 2006 topped Billboard’s Top
Country Albums and landed at #9 on Billboard Top 200 selling over 79,000 copies in its first week. Its sales made her the best selling new country solo artist of 2006. The album includes five songs that Pickler co-wrote with songwriters Chris Lindsey, Aimee Mayo and Karyn Rochelle.
