  • Singer-Songwriter: Brontë Fall

    Singer-Songwriter: Brontë Fall
    Jun 24 2024
    I am thrilled to welcome back to the show, a Nashville-based Gem, Singer-Songwriter Brontë Fall. Teri Bracken’s career as Brontë Fall began almost accidentally. The singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist born and raised in the Chicago suburbs had always been a music obsessive, dreaming of forming her bands and playing on stages. While working as the “door girl” at an indie music venue in Chicago, a chance opportunity allowed her to book her first gig as an artist. Destiny eventually took over, carrying Brontë Fall to pursue her passion for violin at Berklee, where she fell in love with songwriting once and for all. She eventually made her way to Nashville—a dream come true considering it is a songwriter’s mecca and where she is now writing some of her most powerful songs yet. In this episode we dive deep into her Father's untimely passing and how the dark seasons have resulted in the strongest light, embracing being a creative soul, celebrating the art of music videos, touring, and much more. And stay tuned for an exclusive performance of 'Making It Up As I Go'.

    Days after announcing her 'All My Vices' North American headlining tour, Friend of the show JJ Wilde joins us from Canada to catch up on everything in her world. From the whirlwind past 3 years that have taken her to the top of the Rock charts, to opening up for Kiss during their farewell tour and the powerful songwriting that made the EP Best of Me (Part 1) such an incredible listen. I loved asking JJ about the values that have made her an esteemed creative in both Nashville and around the world, and how attending karaoke nights in her youth changed her life. Tickets for the All My Vices tour are on sale now. Dates and more at jjwilde.com
