Aubrie Sellers and Jade Jackson bring garage country and raw songwriting to Smith's Olde Bar on April 30, 2026!
Solo sets followed by a special collaborative set as Jackson + Sellers!
Aubrie Sellers is a genre-bending artist and songwriter from Nashville, who has been making waves since her debut album New City Blues earned a spot as one of Rolling Stone Country's Albums of the Year in 2016. Sellers premiered her unique style-a blend of influences ranging from Led Zeppelin to Ralph Stanley dubbed "garage country"-on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert that same year. A wave of critical reception followed, with appearances on Seth Meyers and a spot next to artists like Sabrina Carpenter, Lizzo, and Billie Eilish as one of Elle's Women in Music.
After touring with Miranda Lambert and Chris Stapleton, Sellers' 2020 sophomore album, Far From Home, garnered two nominations at the Americana Awards. Her side project with Jade Jackson, Jackson+Sellers, was lauded as "passionate and gritty" on NPR's Fresh Air and was one of The New York Times' "15 Best Acts at SXSW" in 2021. Her song "Far From Home" was featured in Yellowstone, landing her in the all-genre Shazam Top 100.
Now, Sellers is set to release her third solo album, Attachment Theory, on March 20, 2026. Equal parts gritty and luminous, the record expands her "garage country" sound into new sonic territory while delving into the psychology of human connection. Paired with a companion podcast of the same name, Attachment Theory is a bold, multidimensional project that cements Sellers' place as one of the most compelling voices in modern music.

Jade Jackson was born and raised in the small town of Santa Margarita, California. Legally blind from birth, she grew up relying on sound to explore the world around her. With no television or internet at home, she spent her early years immersed in her father's record collection, sparking a deep interest in music and songwriting.
As a teenager helping out at her parents' family restaurant, Jade found quiet moments to write songs inspired by everyday life. She later studied music at CalArts, where her talent drew the attention of industry professionals. During her junior year, she was signed to a record label, a step she remains grateful for.
Her path was shaped by challenges, including a serious back injury in college that temporarily paused her progress. That experience ultimately deepened her songwriting, turning personal struggle into honest expression. Jade released her debut album Gilded in 2017, followed by Wilderness in 2019, both with Anti-Records, earning praise for their heartfelt country-rock storytelling.
In 2021, Jade collaborated with Aubrie Sellers on the album Breaking Point, a project that brought her to Nashville. She parted ways with Anti-Records in 2022 and, through the acquisition of Hipgnosis, joined the Sony Music Publishing family. This transition allowed her to focus on music that reflects her West Coast country roots alongside her life in East Nashville, blending classic California sounds with Americana and Nashville influences.
Now dividing her time between her hometown and Tennessee, Jade released the EP Silent Wings in July 2024. The past year also brought several singles, including "Pretending" (2025), supporting mental health awareness; "Dream Big Darling," an uplifting anthem for dreamers; and "Blue Christmas," a holiday duet with Josh Wolfe.
Looking ahead, Jade is grateful for the connections her music continues to foster. A new full-length project is set for release in 2026, continuing her commitment to sharing stories from her life with sincerity and openness.
