Jennifer Brantley

Jennifer pulls out some roots country truth created just across the river from Music Row, better known as East Nashville, TN. These are some of the road tested tunes she’s been playing in honky tonks, churches, theaters, festivals & radio shows, over the past four years. Few things are more satisfying for Jennifer than getting together with some of the best musicians on the planet, packing up the Telecasters and heading to some of the vibiest recording studios anywhere, to make a record. Swain Schaeffer, one of the original Box Tops and Ernest Tubb Troubadour, Leon Rhodes, “ahhh play it Leon” contributed to this one, as did many others. This project mixed plenty of tears and twang plus some fun too. This one gets back to good honest, no auto-tune production. Jennifer’s third CD was produced by former Allman Brothers Band member Johnny Neel. The CD features an uncut, unrecorded song written by Hank Williams Sr and Glen Douglass Tubb. The lyrics of “Heartbroken Forsaken and Alone” were given to Glen by Hank’s first wife, Audrey Williams. Glen finished the song but couldn’t come to terms with Hank’s publisher Acuff Rose, until 2009. Glen let Jennifer be the first to record it after hearing her sing at a Nashville party. Glenn also recorded the song and was released to radio in Europe. Jennifer was also a cast member of the Nashville Traditions radio show which is syndicated on several country radio stations. The show featured bluegrass and traditional country artist and was taped before a live audience at the Ernest Tubb Troubadour Theater in Nashville,TN.
