JESSICA WILLIS FISHER

Jessica Willis Fisher is a singer-songwriter-fiddler with a storyteller’s heart.

Raised playing traditional folk music from an early age, she performed with her family band in the Irish, Country, and Bluegrass music scenes and made appearances on the Grand Ole Opry and America’s Got Talent.

Her Americana-leaning debut solo album “Brand New Day” features both deeply autobiographical lyrics and foot-stomping anthems. Her sophomore record “Bloom” (coming Spring 2025) is an ode to the power of knowing who we are, all our beautiful scars and vulnerable strengths included. Its main theme is the celebration of healing and growth as illustrated through the vibrant beauty of nature and features a blend of acoustic centered folk-Americana, singer-songwriter, and old-time sounds, including fiddle driven instrumentals.

Jessica is also the author of “Unspeakable: Surviving My Childhood and Finding My Voice” and is a passionate advocate for survivors of trauma. She lives in Nashville, TN with her husband Sean and Australian Shepherd, Bucky.
