Humble Beginnings

Jess Glynne was born in London, England in October of 1989. She grew up surrounded by a musical family and began taking singing lessons at a young age. She wrote her first song at age 15. She loved telling a story through her songs and didn't like simply repeating the same lyrics over and over again. That may not seem like much, but it actually separates her from quite a few other pop singers.
Glynne went on to attend the BRIT School for Performing Arts and Technology, where she studied music and performing arts. When she was 18 years old, she signed a songwriting contract with Atlantic Records. She also recorded a demo album, and this is what brought her to the attention of other artists who were looking for songwriters. This would lead to Glynne being credited with writing and co-writing many songs for other artists, such as Clean Bandit, Rita Ora, Ella Henderson, and Tinie Tempah.

Glynne began her solo career in 2014 when she was featured on the Clean Bandit song, "Rather Be." The song reached number one in the UK and gave Glynne a chance to showcase her vocal abilities to a wider audience.
Later that same year, Glynne released her own debut single, "Hold My Hand." The song reached number one in the UK and was followed by her debut album, "I Cry When I Laugh," which was released in 2015. The album reached number one in the UK and spawned several hit singles, including "Don't Be So Hard on Yourself" and "Take Me Home."
In 2018, Glynne released her second album, "Always in Between." The album reached number one in the UK and spawned the hit singles "I'll Be There" and "Thursday." Glynne is currently working on her third album.
