Jay Santilli takes the 'Long Way Home'

Melbourne singer and songwriter Jay Santilli has been immersed in music since childhood, listening to classic country artists on the radio growing up, begging her parents for a keyboard at age 10 and learning saxophone then guitar. She formed a band with friends and would go on to take part in such competitions as the (now-defunct) Telstra Road to Tamworth contest. This year she was a Grand Finalist in the Toyota Star Maker competition.The path to being a musician has not, however, been straightforward – nor has been the pursuit of her other dream, motherhood. Santilli’s new single ‘Long Way Home’ tells of pursuing dreams even when they seem impossible. It is emotional and inspiring, and Santilli has a lot more on the way this year, with plans to release one single a month. When we spoke recently Santilli’s love for her artform and her generous spirit and open heart were evident, making the chat just as inspiring as the song. For more about Jay Santilli: https://jaysantilli.com/Listen to 'Long Way Home' on Apple MusicListen to 'Long Way Home' on SpotifyFollow Sunburnt Country Music on InstagramFollow Sunburnt Country Music on Facebook Sunburnt Country Music website For more Sunburnt Country Music:InstagramFacebook YouTubewebsite Substack Hosted on Acast.
