Brittany Jean

Brittany Jean’s Extended EPK

Brittany Jean is a folk singer/songwriter currently living in a little apple town in North Central Washington, and her style is rooted in the folk and Americana music she has loved all her life. With performances ranging from cozy house concerts and beautiful wineries to full concerts in grand auditoriums and theaters, her music has taken her across the country many times (including playing the legendary Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee, opening for Three Dog Night’s sold out concert in New York City, performing at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas… to name a few adventures!).

While she performs her own songs, she peppers her live sets with cover songs by her favorite artists—such as John Denver, Joni Mitchell, Gordon Lightfoot, Emmylou Harris, Stevie Nicks, and Judy Collins, and her shows are always family friendly! Her poise on stage will put you at ease, and her stories will draw you in.

Brittany has released six studio albums and one EP— all recorded in Nashville, TN. Her Lightfoot EP was released Summer 2023, and this project is her “thank you” to an all-time favorite songwriter. Brittany’s sixth album (Colors & Covers) was released Winter 2023, a collection of songs reflecting a handful of the different shades and seasons in this colorful life.

Thankful for where music has taken her so far, Brittany Jean is looking forward to where the road will take her next, the new songs yet to be written, the fellow wanderers to meet, and the adventures to be had along the way…

With songs about a field of golden sunflowers and the coast of Ireland to songs about the wild at heart and a hidden cabin up north, every song she sings is a love song.

PRESS:

“… from the moment I started listening I was hooked. Brittany has one of those truly incredible, angelic voices that draws you in with such beauty and grace. And her own songs are riveting and truly captivating!”
- Jon Stein (The Hootenanny Cafe Radio Show)

“… [Brittany’s] interpretation and performance of her cover pieces are beautifully and carefully crafted. Her original works, as always, are remarkably thoughtful, well-written and composed; the performances, sensitive and nuanced. I have often wondered how so young a woman could have such insight…”
- Catharine Morehead (Review)

“Brittany Jean’s vocals combined with Nashville’s finest studio musicians makes for an enchanting and delightful listen, and as the song “Turn Right” proclaims, “We should do it all again...” The audience will hit repeat over and over again.”
- Stormcave

“It’s like summer and sunshine and the dust of a country road, and heartbreak and laughter and life, and love and smiles and wandering.”
- Deborah O’Carroll (Album Review)

“My family and I fell in love with this song from the moment we heard it. The powerful, lilting vocals are a perfect compliment to the inspiring lyrics and the haunting melody. The artist weaves a story through this tune in a way rarely seen in modern music. A refreshing, wonderful piece of music.”
- Listener on iTunes (Review for the single “Smoke and Mirrors”)

About the Albums:

Whispered Stories was released in September 2013, and it was completed with the help of fans — making her debut album even more special.  

Brittany Jean’s sophomore album (Leavin’ Home) was released in March 2016. Leavin’ Home includes Brittany’s song “Wildfire,” which was written in response to first-hand experience during the Carlton Complex Wildfires of 2014 (the largest wildfires in Washington State history at the time—a record broken the following year). This song was a centerpiece for the fundraising effort of the Carlton Complex Longterm Recovery Group, whose purpose is to rebuild the 300+ homes that were lost that summer of 2014.

Brittany’s third album (Wander With Me) was released in January 2018. With songs about being brave and standing tall to songs about learning to dance again, this album is an invitation — “Won’t you wander with me?”

Released in April 2020, All The Love is an album of love songs and love stories, featuring eight original songs and four covers of favorites by Stevie Nicks, Dave Loggins, Don McLean, and one from “The Greatest Showman.” (From this album, “The Mirror Go Machine” was a finalist in the 2020 International Acoustic Music Awards for best Bluegrass/Country Song of the year!)

Early 2020, after learning of and then dealing with the loss of her performance schedule for the rest of that year, Brittany turned her focus to creating her first-ever Christmas Album. Comprised of personal favorites and brand new, wintry originals, Wintertide was released before Christmas 2021. From songs about home and a cabin up north to songs about crystal trees and a Christmas ghost ship, this album is a sweet new addition to the Christmas Music catalogue. (Wintertide charted #2 on the Folk Alliance International Radio Chart in December 2022, and “Call Me North” was a finalist in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest for Best Folk Song for 2023!)

Brittany’s Lightfoot EP was released Summer 2023, and this project is her “thank you” to an all-time favorite songwriter; and Brittany’s sixth album (Colors & Covers) was released Winter 2023, a collection reflecting a handful of the different shades and seasons in this colorful life. (From Colors & Covers, “Golden Hour” was a finalist for the International Acoustic Music Awards’ Song of the Year, and Brittany was also a Finalist for Best Female Artist for 2023!)
