Singer-songwriter Jackie Minton traverses the gap between the sacred and the secular, daring us to question if there was ever any distance between the two. Inspired by a long line of storytellers, her voice is evocative of the past while drawing us in with a clarity all her own.

Born in Texas, Minton picked up guitar and piano at a young age. She was drawn to writing and in 2016 her debut EP Searching for Now gained the affection of listeners from around the globe. Five years of travel and studies fueled the artist’s growth, landing her in Nashville, Tennessee. She went on to crowdfund her full length album Earnest Voice, releasing it in 2021. Upon hearing this project, international artist Dermot Kennedy selected Minton to open for a stop on his 2022 US tour, breaking her into the national floor.

With the release of “Understand” and subsequent singles from her forthcoming album, Jackie continues to surprise with her genre bending folk. Her new project Sagesse (titled by the French word for wisdom) nods to Minton’s most recent move abroad and is a continuation of the themes of her 2023 EP Genesis, reminding us this is still only her beginning.
