(Toronto, ON – September 17, 2019) – Today, Brittany Howard shared her new song, “13th Century Metal,” from her debut solo album, Jaime, which will be released this Friday, September 20.

In a four-star review, Rolling Stone hailed Jaime as “strikingly bold” and noted, “Brittany Howard is a Southern rock & roll radical with a centuries-deep sense of history and some inspiring ideas about how to reshape it to fit our moment.” MOJO and Q also awarded the album four stars. The New York Times observed, “The songs are funky, experimental, rowdy and exposed: the work of a songwriter going deep to explore spirituality, sexuality, traumas of the past and ideas about the present, by way of danceable propulsion and sonic escapades.”
“Stay High,” the album’s first single, has climbed into the top 5 of Billboard’s Triple A Songs chart. Views of the official video, which stars Terry Crews (“Everybody Hates Chris,” The Expendables films, Deadpool 2), have surpassed six million. NPR noted, “‘Stay High’ floats in the air, celebrating hard work with the love of home.” Refinery 29 said, “This feel-good gem will get you through any rough times and slap a smile back on your face.”
As the frontwoman and guitarist for Alabama Shakes, Howard has become one of music’s most celebrated figures. The band has won four GRAMMY Awards and topped the Billboard 200 with the Gold-certified Sound & Color, the follow-up to its Platinum debut album, Boys & Girls.
