Nell 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.
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

In the unending deep of the sky A tired star yawns And a lady’s shoe, made of silver – where my soul is infused - has been a satellite around the thoughts of my feelings
