JILLIAN JACQUELINE RELEASES CONFIDENT SONG “BLEACHERS” TODAY (6/23)
Razor-sharp rising star and Big Loud Records artist JILLIAN JACQUELINE has today (6/23) released the song and video for her defiant new track, “Bleachers,” a confident declaration which puts her unflinching Country creativity on blast.
Co-written by Jacqueline with Tofer Brown and Trent Dabbs, the song is now available across all digital platforms and highlights this emerging artist’s fully developed sense of self. Upbeat and carefree, “Bleachers” is a loud-and-proud anthem filled with marching beats and pep rally chants that celebrates individuality and staying true to who you are.
"I wanted to write something that felt like an anthem, a lighthearted ode to embracing individuality without sounding preachy,” Jacqueline explains. “When I wrote it, I felt like using the dynamics of high school as a way to describe life shows how the ideas and beliefs we sometimes learn young get carried into adulthood and can prevent us from embracing the contrasts that actually make the world so uniquely beautiful. It's the most fun to sing onstage."
Now live on Vevo, Jacqueline’s “Bleachers” video is a day in the life adventure full of retro swagger, inviting viewers to tag along for recording sessions, photo shoots, scooter rides, and even a shopping trip as the talented singer-songwriter grows her collection of vintage threads.
