Tristin Burke

J is excited to be entering into the studio to work with Nashville's very own Tristin Burke. They will be starting the pre-production for the recording Tristin's sophomore effort.

"Born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Tristin Burke has spent her entire life listening, learning and truly appreciating the art of music. Being surrounded by such a musical atmosphere, it's no surprise that she started writing and composing her own music at a very early age. Soon writing poetry and songs became not only an emotional outlet but a way of life for Tristin. Always writing from real life experiences, every song is filled with true emotions that anyone can relate to. With influences ranging from Bruce Springsteen, Alanis Morissette, Melissa Etheridge, Tracy Chapman, Jennifer Knapp, Third Day, Janis Joplin and more, her style of music will move you from the inside out."
