Brandi Carlile

Brandi Carlile (born June 1, 1981) is an award-winning singer-songwriter, whose music ranges from Americana, to country, pop and folk-rock. Known for her raw, powerful vocals and intense stage prescence, she initially gained attention with her sophomore album The Story in 2007. Over a decade later, she earned six Grammy nominations for her 2018 album By The Way, I Forgive You, the highest-charting album of her career that made her the most-nominated woman that year. In 2019, Carlile had a busier year than ever, having co-founded the female country supergroup The Highwomen, and co-producing country legend Tanya Tucker’s comeback album While I’m Livin'. In the early 2000s, she met twins Phil and Tim Hanseroth, who became her long-time bandmates and songwriting collaborators. According to an interview in No Depression, the three consider themselves a band despite Carlile’s name being on the endeavor, and they equally share their publishing equity, no matter who wrote any particular song. She has worked with acclaimed producers from T-Bone Burnett to Rick Rubin, country legends like the late John Prine, and pop crossovers like Sam Smith. She also hosted her own music festival, “Girls Just Wanna Weekend” in 2018.
