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 Jaime, her most revelatory work yet. 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,” saysBrittany 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.”

I can listen to "Stay High" on repeat for a good hour. That song touches the deepest part of me.

[DesignerFromMars]

Whenever you get Nate Smith to play drums on your album and play live with you... you know the music is already special.

[DesignerFromMars]

When the album is great but the live performances are even better you know you're in the presence of greatness.

[StephenGrayce]

The woman has so much swagger now - and the talent to back it up. No limit, Brit.

[auralanjuhl]

Sister Rosetta Tharpe is smiling down from up above and so is Etta James.

[frankbroussard]

This woman is special, the way she expresses herself in her beautiful lyrics and sound...this is real music, Prince is loving this and so are we...loving u Brittany

[leesanz]

Gave me chills listening to her and band! Prince is smiling!

[theinfinatewisdom]

How in the world! can anyone NOT LOVE this! Brittany and her band ROCKS!

[erikthepitmaster]

So refreshing seeing someone cutting her own musical path while so many out there are stuck in others' ruts. Refreshing, indeed.

[s.howardjr.]

She is not afraid to be herself and unapologetic!
Carrying our last name well. We strong backs.
The album has been on repeat DAY1 and now I can sing every song word for word as I watch

just home from Brittany's concert in Glasgow . Absolutely brilliant . What an artist, what a band, amazing backing singers . Come back soon .Please .

[dwaynearthur]

She reminds me of Prince . The level of talent and care given to their performance, and her expression is just up there on a higher level . The back up vocals and musicians only cement my initial comparison even more .
I’m very pleased that she did this album. 🙂

WOW! This was a great show. But most memorable for me was the cover of the Prince song "The Breakdown". That was INCREDIBLE!

[itsmy]

It's been years, years, years since I actually sat down and watched an entire concert... you are a free soul Brittany and you have the best band.. This was one of the best! Ever!

[SamanthaPrincelover]

Wow ! I got chills listening to her! I’m speechless! Not everyone can do a Prince cover and sound so good!

[alysonlucille]

I love this. Brittany - you are brilliant, beautiful, and so so real. Thank you for sharing yourself with us!!

[hunterwest]

[ortem]

This woman is a Goddess. Love. Love. Love.

Well done on the Prince cover. Only Prince fans would know that song.
