About Me

Jill Courtney

Stay tuned for upcoming shows and recordings. I am currently in the studio (at Sharkbait Studios) slowly re-recording my freshman album with extremely talented Nashville players. As tracks become available, samples will be uploaded here. For now, tracks from my commercial vocal demo are on here, just for a sampling of my voice.
If you want more info on me, feel free to read my blogs. They are the most telling.
