Sassy, yet soulful; Fresh, yet unforgettable- At just 23, singer-songwriter JILLIAN VALENTINE has become a name familiar to many. Creating catchy pop hooks over a variety of rock, blues, & soul, topped with well-crafted, charmingly honest lyrics, her songs are a breath of fresh air in today’s music scene. As if her songwriting skills weren’t enough, it’s Valentine’s sultry, soulful voice that captivated her audience and keeps them hooked to her unique sound and style.
A graduate of Berklee College of Music (John Mayer, Melissa Etheridge, Gavin DeGraw) in Boston, Valentine studied voice, songwriting, guitar, and piano with some of the best musicians/professors in the industry. Musically raised on multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriters like Sheryl Crow and Ryan Adams, she considered it crucial to learn both guitar and piano to aide in the songwriting process, as well as to become a better musician and performer.
Post Berklee and Boston, Valentine has since moved to New York City. She is currently in the studio recording her debut album, which has an expected release date for Fall 2009. She’s unsigned.
