Brittany Elise: ‘Hi, It’s Me’, all the way from Nashville

Although I’ve interviewed Brittany Elise before, we didn’t meet in person until September this year and it was in Nashville, where the native Queenslander has been spending time writing, recording and performing. It was not only lovely to meet her but she was so generous with her insider tips about the best places to find live music in the city that is full of options for that.From her first album, 2019’s Something More, Brittany established that she’s a country music artist with melodic sensibilities that lean towards pop and a take on songwriting that is uniquely hers and which leads to songs that have a great little quirk or kick or detail that keeps you going back to them over and over. That continued on her 2022 album Just Be, which opened with the single ‘Feel the Fire’, which was all about creativity and how irresistible its fire can be. Since then Brittany has released several new singles, including ‘Lucky’ and ‘Girl in the Mirror’. Her latest is ‘Hi, It’s Me’, which is a mission statement that sprang from a particularly challenging time in her life. Brittany was a committed and successful athlete with state and national titles, and aspirations to go further, when an injury left her in danger of not even being able to walk properly again. She had to change her perception of and plans for the future, and that’s when she started to commit to music.In the years since then she’s proved as dedicated to her musical career as she was to sport, and ‘Hi, It’s Me’ is a statement of that dedication and a declaration of dreams that just happen to come true. It’s an anthem that others can find themselves in – so if you’re ready to be your own cheerleader, this is the song for you!Brittany Elise is touring Queensland and also heading for the 2025 Tamworth Country Music Festival.
