Chelcie Jette - Direction, balance and making way for dreams

Chelcie Jette Brave Musician Monica Shriver

Brave Musician selfies are back! Yay for getting to do this conversation in person! Monica and Chelcie smile for the camera!

Listen on your favorite platform

In this episode, Monica chats with singer and songwriter, Chelcie Jette about her journey as a songwriter, how she ended up in Nashville after graduating with a degree in music business from Berkeley, and all of the different odd jobs that she has done. They talk about being inspired by others, learning from co-writing, researching and finding sounds that resonate. Chelcie shares her songwriting process for the songs on her up-coming EP (which drops August 18) including some audio clips and the rollercoaster of emotions that comes with putting work out into the world. We talk about our individual recording experiences, the important contributions of others, and getting creative with funding projects. Chelcie answers the “Behind the Curtain” questions, and we try not to get too distracted by her two extremely cute cats.

“So, I was booking all that. I didn’t do my own music. Like I tried writing here and there but I never thought I was good enough. I was like ‘I’m not going to be an artist, what’s an artist?’... No one in my family does music and like so I had, looking back I’ve realized I had a very limited view of the music industry and music in general and I’ve kinda learned that all in the last ten years, trying to catch up with everybody.” - Chelcie Jette
