Jill Riley’s singing and songwriting style is known to leave many a lasting impression and desire to hear more. From deep in the Panhandle of Texas, where she was born and raised, to the far reaches of Ireland’s coast where she has ventured, along with many stops here, there, and in between, listeners are captivated by this artist.
After a successful and life-changing decade in Nashville, Tennessee, Jill recently and decidedly chose to make her new home-base, none other than, Ft. Worth, TX. “Every element of the creative community is committed to such excellence here, and I sense that it’s just the beginning of an ever unfolding explosion in the arts for Ft. Worth. I carefully tell select folks about this treasure of a city,” she laughs, “ It’s truly a best kept secret – it’s New York’s Manhattan meets Franklin, TN (a quaint historical suburb of Nashville),” she muses.
Jill’s gripping vocals, stellar lyrics, poignant guitar playing and the occasional move to the piano are a startlingly rare combination, reaching every demo-graphic from age 8 to 80 plus! Not an easy task nor a typical feat, but this is, no doubt, Jill’s forte, her gift…one she displays with ease, opening hearts along the way to digest stories within brilliantly rendered songs that seem ironically meant for each listener in a particular way.
Many have termed her a modern day psalmist who isn’t afraid to express the heart of the matter to real people…living real life!
