[+]Graceful, challenging, unguarded, powerful: Such are the songs of Jaclyn Brown. Known as a writer of intelligent and catchy songs in the country / folk / pop vein, Jaclyn will soon be considered a preeminent singer/songwriter in the South and beyond.
With a degree in Studio and Jazz Vocal Performance from the University of Miami School of Music in Florida, the prolific Brown capitalizes on a diversity of influences and experiences in crafting some of the most poignant songs to emerge from her generation.
Although she frequently travels to Miami, California, and New York, Jaclyn makes her home in Nashville, TN. Her bright voice and matching smile make audiences feel at home whenever she's on stage. Her new release Unsolicited Material is garnering attention right and left. The CD features Brwn's best original songs, several of which have already been picked up by well-known artists in the country, jazz, even R&B genres.
Growing up in Nashville with a session pianist for a father, Brown had many opportunities to hear and learn from established artists and writers, from country singer Brenda Lee to Broadway casting director Dave Clemmons. In high school, Jaclyn attended Interlochen Arts Camp and the Tennessee Governor's School for the Arts. She also sang backup vocals for artists like Jamie O'Neal and Kathy Mattea.
In her college years, Brown landed an internship with country singer Lari White and her husband, hit songwriter Chuck Cannon. White and Cannon greatly encouraged and inspired her to continue writing and performing her thoughtful and timeless songs, no matter what musical "fluff" might be considered popular.
Jaclyn now works at King Easy Records for hit songwriter Darrell Scott, and also directs the Chick Singer Night showcase at the Bluebird Café in Nashville.
You can currently catch Jaclyn performing her original tunes at various clubs in Nashville. Jaclyn enjoys and writes all styles of music, and is heavily influenced by pop songwriters like Diane Warren and Craig Wiseman, as well as classic songwriters such as Duke Ellington, Joni Mitchell, and James Taylor.
"The great thing about being a singer and a songwriter is that it enables you to say whatever you want to say in whatever voice you want to use," says songstress Jaclyn Brown. "
