Sounds LikeNell Bryden’s distinctive and emotionally expressive voice lends a timeless feel to her unique brand of modern-Dixie. Weaving elements of bluegrass, American jazz standards and retro soul into her songwriting and performances, Bryden’s inspiring vocal style can jump from moments of laid-back lilt to passionate plea, only to follow by shaking things up with a straight-ahead roadhouse boogie.

   About Nell Bryden

With 350+ shows in the last two years- including four tours of the UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden and Germany - exciting modern-Dixie singer Nell Bryden has “racked up quite the impressive following,” according to Time Out New York.

Based in New York, Bryden is a formidable touring machine. She’s played opening slots with international acts like KT Tunstall, performed on the number one radio show in Ireland, and has received glowing reviews from BBC Radio 2 Presenters. Her latest album, Second Time Around, is currently getting radio play across the US and Canada on 84 stations including channels on XM Satellite radio. The release has been climbing the major industry trade charts for the Americana and AAA formats. The album is being featured on major online radio outclets and local & national radio stations across Europe and is being distributed by Itunes & CD Baby and is being licensed by MTV for their programming

Reviews for Second Time Around are already creating buzz on both sides of the Atlantic.

Bryden’s songwriting straddles country, blues and jazz, with a respectful nod in the direction of big band, propelled by the twin engines of her throaty voice and her swaggering writing style. This is music for ears unperturbed by dilettantism, and imaginations ripe to trace an alternative arc.

The Irish Times (May 5, 2007)

The new disc marks yet another step for this talented performer; she still tugs heartstrings in ballads like "Only Life I Know," but "Tonight" and "Late Night Call" reveal a playful sass previously reserved for her live dates.

Time Out New York (June 27, 2007)

Graceful, challenging, unguarded, powerful: such are the songs of this talented young lady, who not only wrote all the songs, but also plays electric, acoustic and twelve string guitars, Dobro and cello.

Maverick (June 2006)
