Биография

It’s the sound of a song you half remember. A voice from some faraway radio. A glimpse of a now scratched record. You pause, reaching into that dark recess of memory for a brighter recollection, and return with... nothing. Just the sensation you've forgotten something you were once so sure you knew. There was never any satisfaction to be found: Sleepy Jean's soul-tinged sardonic sound is all her own. Spending the better part of a decade frequenting tourist traps and hole-in-the-walls, Sleepy cut her teeth sliding her self-penned songs in amongst those of her contemporaries. Her wistful, smoky voice is a time capsule of influences, but is best known for that inimitable quality that evokes salty tears and bloody bar fights alike. Her first recorded offering, Idle Hands, made its way into the world midsummer 2021 and was described as "a bygone meets modern flair of New Americana for Dreamers" (Glide Magazine).
