(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.

Howard, who will perform on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” on September 26, has extended her North American headline tour into November.

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.”

(Toronto, ON – August 14, 2019)– Today, Brittany Howard released “He Loves Me,” a song from her forthcoming debut solo album, Jaime.The soulful, slow-burning track – which debuted earlier today as Zane Lowe’s World Record on Apple Music’s Beats 1 – offers up a frank reflection on the unconditional nature of God’s love. While confessing she’s not a churchgoer, Howard punctuates the song with samples from a sermon by Reverend Terry K. Anderson, a Houston-based pastor she discovered on YouTube.

View Howard’s live performance of “He Loves Me” HERE. The video was directed by Danny Clinch and shot at Sound Emporium in Nashville. Download / stream “He Loves Me” HERE. Jaime, set for September 20 release on ATO Records, is titled after Howard’s sister, who taught her to play the piano and write poetry, and who died of cancer when they were still kids.

“‘He Loves Me’ is a very important track on my record. It is a song I deeply want to share to help others realize loving and being loved by God doesn’t have to look the same for everyone,” says Brittany Howard. “When my older sister passed away, it took its toll on our family. We grew apart from one another and therefore, we grew apart from our family church. I thought God had intended to hurt us or punish us, but I later realized that I found God in music and I found God in my voice. I learned that He always had a plan for myself and my family. That is what ‘He Loves Me’ is about. It is my greatest realization that He has never left me. All those years that I had turned away, I was still receiving His absolute love and forgiveness.”

Howard will launch her North American headline tour this Saturday, August 17, with a sold-out concert at the Orange Peel in Asheville, NC. The run will also include a Canadian stop in Toronto on September 22. Howard’s band includes drummer Nate Smith and bassist Zac Cockrell (founding members of Alabama Shakes who play on Jaime), keyboardist Paul Horton (Alabama Shakes), guitarists Alex Chakour (Charles Bradley & His Extraordinaires, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings) and Brad Allen Williams (José James, CeCe Winans) plus Alabama Shakes’ background vocalists Lloyd Buchanan (who also plays keys), Karita Law and Shanay Johnson.

Tickets are available at www.brittanyhoward.com. Every online ticket purchased for the U.S. dates on the fall tour will include a CD of the new album, Jaime.See below for full itinerary.

Fans who pre-order Jaime in digital format will instantly receive “He Loves Me,” “Stay High” and “History Repeats.”The album’s first single, “Stay High,” entered Billboard’s Triple A Songs chart at No.15 and is now in the top 10. Views of the accompanying video have surpassed five million. The clip stars Terry Crews (“Everybody Hates Chris”, The Expendables films, Deadpool 2, “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” and “America’s Got Talent”). It was directed by Kim Gehrig (Wiley & Mark Ronson, Chaka Khan) and features Howard’s first-ever appearance in a music video. View “Stay High” HERE

NPR observed, “‘Stay High’ floats in the air, celebrating hard work with the love of home.” Refinery 29 praised the “feel-good gem” and noted, “If you were looking for a working-class hero, put down the Bruce Springsteen cassette tapes and let’s talk about Brittany Howard.” Rolling Stone said, “Howard’s solo debut, Jaime, is her most ambitious recording ever, full of synthed-out psychedelic funk, druggy soul ballads, hip-hop loops, and lyrics grappling with her past, including sexuality, family tragedy, religious guilt and more…It’s a powerful record.”

JAIME, BRITTANY HOWARD’S DEBUT SOLO ALBUM, SET FOR SEPTEMBER 20 RELEASE ON ATO RECORDS

June 25, 2019 by Cadence Recordings

Alabama Shakes, ATO Records, Brittany Howard, Debut Solo Album, Grammy Winner, History Repeats, Jaime, North American Tour, Toronto Date

Howard Shares The First Track, “History Repeats”

Fall North American Tour Announced Including Toronto Date September 22

Pre-Order Jaime HERE

(Toronto, ON – June 25, 2019) – Brittany Howard – lead vocalist/guitarist for the chart-topping, GRAMMY®-winning band Alabama Shakes – will release her debut solo album, Jaime, on September 20 via ATO Records. Today, she shared the lead off track, “History Repeats.“Download “History Repeats” HERE and listen HERE. Pre-order Jaime HERE.

“‘History Repeats’ is as much a personal song as it is a song about us as a human species. Our times of success may propel us forward, but our repeating failures hold us back from evolving into harmony,” says Brittany Howard, who posted her mission statement for the album earlier today. See below for links to her social media.

Howard will support the album with a North American tour, which includes two-night stands at intimate venues in Asheville, NC, Washington, DC and Los Angeles. The headline run will also include a show in Toronto on September 22 at Rebel. See below for full itinerary. Howard and her band made their live debut last week at the prestigious Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.

The fan ticket pre-sale begins today at 10:00 AM ET. Tickets go on sale to the public on Friday, June 28, at 10:00 AM local time unless otherwise noted below. Every online ticket purchased for the U.S. dates on the fall tour will include a CD of the new album, Jaime.

Citi is the official presale credit card of the Brittany Howard 2019 North American tour. As such, Citi cardmembers will have access to purchase presale tickets beginning today at 10:00AM through Thursday, June 27, at 10:00 PM local time through Citi EntertainmentSM. For complete presale details visit www.citientertainment.com.

Howard recorded Jaime after a cross country drive that took her from Nashville to a small house in Topanga, CA – a rustic Los Angeles county town wedged between the mountains and the beach.She titled the album after her sister, who taught her to play the piano and write poetry, and who died of cancer when they were still teenagers.

“The title is in memoriam, and she definitely did shape me as a human being,” says Brittany Howard. “But, the record is not about her. It’s about me. I’m pretty candid about myself and who I am and what I believe. Which is why I needed to do it on my own.”

While Howard admits it was daunting, stepping out alone from her work with Alabama Shakes and revealing so much of herself, it was a necessary step. “I turned 30 and I was like, ‘What do I want the rest of my life to look like?'” she recalls. “Do I want to play the same songs until I’m 50 and then retire, or do I do something that’s scarier for me? Do I want people to understand me and know me, do I want to tell them my story? I’m very private, but my favorite work is when people are being honest and really doing themselves.”

She brought a handful of finished songs into engineer Shawn Everett’s L.A. studio. Once she started working with the band she had assembled – a core group of Alabama Shakes bassist Zac Cockrell, innovative jazz-based keyboard player Robert Glasper and drummer Nate Smith – the music started to take shape. Different sounds and approaches began to emerge. Howard examines spiritual ritual on “He Loves Me” and celebrates love with “Georgia.” “Goat Head” is informed by the experience of growing up as a mixed-race child in the South while “13th Century Metal” grew out of Glasper and Smith jamming in the studio. See below for track listing.

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. Howard has performed everywhere from the Obama White House to the main stage at Lollapalooza, where she sang with Paul McCartney at his invitation. In between albums and tours with Alabama Shakes, Howard grows restless. “To me, there is no time off – I’m a creative person and I need to create, or I just feel weird, not fully human,” she says. She’s channeled that relentless creativity into projects with her side bands, Thunderbitch and Bermuda Triangle, and now Jaime, her most revelatory work yet.
