Brandi Carlile

One of music’s most respected voices, Brandi Carlile is an Oscar-nominee, 11x Grammy-winner, 2x EMMY-winner and #1 New York Times Bestselling author.

After pouring herself into projects with musical icons, Carlile is looking inward on her new album, Returning To Myself (Interscope Records/Lost Highway), produced by Carlile, Andrew Watt, Aaron Dessner and Justin Vernon. The record follows Who Believes in Angels?, the universally praised collaborative album with childhood hero Elton John, which debuted at #1 in the U.K. and top 10 in the U.S.

Carlile also produced Grammy-winning projects from Joni Mitchell and Brandy Clark as well as a cover of Indigo Girls’ “Closer To Fine,” recorded with her wife, Catherine, for Barbie The Album and a version of “Home” for Ted Lasso. She received her first Oscar nomination (Best Original Song) for “Never Too Late,” written with Elton John, Bernie Taupin and Andrew Watt for the Disney+ documentary of the same name.

Beloved by her peers, Carlile has worked with artists such as The Highwomen, Soundgarden, Sam Smith, Alicia Keys, Hozier, Noah Kahan, P!nk and Dolly Parton, was named OUT Magazine’s Icon of the Year, awarded Billboard’s Women In Music Trailblazer Award and NMPA’s Songwriter Icon Award as well as multiple awards from the Americana Music Association.

Carlile is also a founder of the Looking Out Foundation, which has raised over $8M for grassroots causes and lives in rural Washington state with her wife and two daughters.
