Jillian Jacqueline Gets Honest On Upcoming Debut Album

Jillian Jacqueline will release her debut album, Honestly, on June 10 through her new deal with Virgin Music.

Ahead of the full album release, Jacqueline has dropped “Better with a Broken Heart,” a duet featuring Brothers Osborne‘s TJ Osborne. Penned by Jacqueline alongside album co-producer Tofer Brown and songwriter Adam James, the track was the first song she wrote during the pandemic.

“I’m thrilled to have TJ of the Brothers Osborne singing with me on it,” says Jacqueline. “I’ve always loved that resonant voice of his, with this emotional tremor to it. He really nailed it in the studio, and hearing us together on the chorus just gives me chills.”

Co-produced with Tofer and Bryan Brown, the eleven track album includes emotionally potent duets with Nashville notables Charlie Worsham as well as Osborne. The album also sees her reunite with superstar songwriter Lori McKenna and includes co-writes with singer-songwriter Madi Diaz and Trevor Rosen of Old Dominion.

“It feels like a fresh start for me,” explains Jacqueline. “After 14 years in Nashville, this is my first fully realized album, one that runs the gamut of me as a person and an artist. The passion of making this record was really a creative rebirth, putting me back in touch with what I’ve always loved about music.”

So far in her career, Jacqueline has garnered nearly 100 million streams with a sequence of initial EPs and singles, including “Reasons;” “God Bless This Mess,” which she co-wrote with McKenna; and “If I Were You” featuring Keith Urban.
