Jill Andrews: These Words



Mark and I went to see Jill Andrews a few weeks ago, at the Gray Eagle, and I was completely blown away. Her voice is mesmerizing. Smooth and ethereal, but still twangy and powerful. You can hear East Tennessee in every syllable, and in my book that's a good thing. This video is not from that show, but it features one of her songs that has been nominated for the International Songwriting Competition. I confess, I don't normally participate in these kind of things, but I was so floored by this song, that I hopped myself right over here and cast my vote. Whether or not you vote, please take a moment and listen to this song. Jill also showcases one cover song a month on her website, plus has a new EP out, so if you like what you hear, there's more.
