In a world where female empowerment isn’t always a given, Girl presents a bold alternative. With songs focusing on self-love, finding your own voice, strength, initiative, confidence, and so much more, Girl will motivate any girl, and any one, to dream, to try, to fly.

Written by the team of long time music industry veteran and producer of the She Rocks Awards, Laura B. Whitmore and award-winning singer/songwriter and pianist Jenna Paone, Girl blossomed in a flash of vision when the pair attended a songwriting retreat together in Martha’s Vineyard, MA. During a discussion about the current political climate, they were simultaneously struck with the plan for the album’s theme. “Once the idea came to life, there was no stopping it,” they share. “We headed to a coffee shop and wrote the first track, ‘I Like It Loud,’ right then and there.”

The album is produced by a variety of top professionals including GRAMMY- nominated Divinity Roxx (bassist and former music director for Beyoncé), GRAMMY award-winning producer Rob Christie, BMI award-winning pop mastermind Keith Sorrels (Demi Lovato, John Legend), and others. Many guests appear on the album including guitarist Nita Strauss (Demi Lovato, Alice Cooper, Iron Maidens), Americana singer/songwriter Hannah Holbrook of SHEL, touring and recording artist Laura Clapp, celebrated vocalist Jessica Childress, country singer/songwriter Sabrina Lentini, rocking guitarist/vocalist ARIEL (Debbie Gibson), Canadian artist Charlotte Command, and more. 

With an intrinsic force behind it embodied by a social and political climate that has devalued the contributions of women, Girl has steamrolled ahead, taking shape as an important collection of songs written for girls but accessible to listeners of every background, age and gender.

Girl will spark the imagination and encourage the determination of any girl in your life.
