Brennley’s musical story begins as a four-year-old girl on her family’s ranch in Apple Valley, California. Her dad introduced her to the sound of the steel guitar, and to the voices of country legends like Waylon Jennings, Emmylou Harris, and Merle Haggard. This musical influence, combined with her unwavering faith in Jesus, produces an artist who brings a new, unique sound to Country and Christian music.
Music quickly became a sacred space of comfort; a place where Brennley connected with God while navigating her mom’s battle with life-threatening Cardiac Lyme Disease. The hope and healing Brennley came to know through that trial fostered her calling to share the authentic love of Jesus through her music.
At age 11, Brennley landed the lead roles in Emmy-Awarded Disney/DreamWorks animated features, “Dragons: Rescue Riders” and “Tangled: the Series.” At age 14 Brennley appeared on NBC’s 12th season of The Voice, where she succeeded as a finalist and became the show’s youngest, highest charting artist to date.
Soon after The Voice, she began traveling regularly to Nashville to devote herself to her craft. She earned her spot in the live music scene as an opener for Cheryl Crowe, Tim McGraw, Danny Gokey, Dwight Yoakam, and Phil Wickham, among others. Between her trips to Nashville, she led worship at SoCal Harvest Church and Crusades with Evangelist Greg Laurie.
Brennley released her debut EP, “Story Stays” in 2020. The title track, “One More Hallelujah,” served as her earliest venture into Country Christian Music and reflects her yearning to deliver a message of hope.
Brennley supported her community during the COVID Pandemic by curating the Balcony Sessions, where she sang a message of unity and encouragement live from her California home balcony every Friday night, drawing hundreds of listeners.
After making the move to Nashville, Brennley signed with Sony/Provident Label Group. Her music career is a reflection of God’s calling on her life woven with her roots in traditional country music. Brennley shares a sincere love of Jesus, a heart for ministry, and an authentic intention to bring a pure, honest spirit that will blaze a trail to a wide audience in Country Christian music.
