Described As A Musician With A Cause, Producer, Singer And Songwriter JildyT Dedicates New Album “Hurt’s To Love” To Victims Of Domestic Violence

SUMMARY: For JildyT, it is not enough to create insane dance beats to up tempo feel good music, but something that sends a positive message of hope and unity. Her latest album “Hurt’s To Love”, released on November 15th, 2017 is designed to raise awareness and raise money for the many women and children who have suffered from domestic abuse, with portions of the proceeds benefiting a number of charities dedicated to helping women and children of abuse.

JildyT has been singing since before she could talk. As a child she drew much of her inspiration (and likely her talent) from her father who she says “sang like Frank Sinatra”. When she was only 11, she began to study opera and compete in country music singing contests. Dedicating much of her life to her craft, she performed almost every night and practiced daily in order to create the angelic sounding voice that you hear today.

What makes her such an interesting Hollywood story is the way that she is dedicated not only to her craft, but to the idea of helping others in society. Throughout the past couple of years, she has filmed what seems like countless music videos consisting of both cover songs and original material in and around the Los Angeles area. And while she admits that it was a bit of a grind, she expresses being motivated by the charity aspect. She explains that there is “no ego” in what she does, and that at the end of the day the music industry does not foster a predictable lifestyle. [Read more…]
