As the frontwoman and guitarist for Alabama Shakes, Howard became one of music’s most celebrated figures. For her solo debut, she boldly decided to explore new directions. Jaime, named after Howard’s sister, who taught her to play piano and write poetry, and who died of cancer when they were still teenagers, was named the Best Album of 2019 by NPR. Stay High was Public Radio’s Most Popular Song of 2019. History Repeats, Goat Head and Short And Sweet received GRAMMY nominations in the rock, R&B and American roots categories respectively.

Praising Jaime as a candid autobiography in funk, The New York Times said, With a voice that can go to the roadhouse, the church or deeply private places, she exorcises troubles with the music’s sheer pleasure. Pitchfork said, Jaime is a daring turn in just about every way. In a four-star review, Rolling Stone hailed it as Brittany’s searing manifesto, her tour-de-force solo debut. Entertainment Weekly praised Jaime as a genre-bending solo record that is both intensely personal and achingly universal.
