Brittney Spencer, one of Nashville’s most lauded newcomers, has signed with United Talent Agency and announced a tour opening for Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit as well as some festival and cruise appearances, the singer announced today (July 14).
Spencer has already graced a Times Square billboard in New York City and already sat down with journalist Anthony Mason for an interview on “CBS This Morning,” all as an independent artist. She was also named one of 2021’s Spotify and Pandora “Artists To Watch.”
“We are incredibly honored to represent such an amazingly talented artist such as Brittney,” says UTA agent Jeffrey Hasson. “Brittney’s ability to tackle deep and relatable subject matters with such power and control vocally is inspiring. It was clear to us from the first meeting that Brittney has such an important voice for the future, and we’re honored to help share that with the world through every area at UTA.”
In addition to touring with Isbell, Spencer is to make appearances at festivals including Watershed, Merlefest and more as well as the Melissa Etheridge Cruise and Americana seagoing favorite, Cuyamo.
“I’m so excited to partner with UTA!” Spencer exclaims in a statement. “I’m confident this partnership will aid in helping me find creative, innovative ways to build out my live show and connect with lots of music lovers along the way. Live shows are finally back, and I feel more ready than ever with this incredible new addition to my team.”
