Brittany Blair, also known as Jacuzzisuit (
web link), has a rich musical journey that began with a childhood fascination with Celine Dion's voice and impressive vocal runs.
Growing up, she was also inspired by vocal powerhouses like Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, and Aretha Franklin. Her passion for music blossomed during high school when she participated in the 'Let's Make a Demo' program in Napanee, where she was introduced to a diverse range of sounds and perspectives by fellow musicians.
Currently, Brittany is involved in several projects that showcase her versatility as an artist. Nice On (
web link) combines funk and pop with R&B influences, while Say It Back (
web link) leans towards a pop/rock sound. Jacuzzisuit, her solo project, explores a dreamy and ethereal side of pop/rock music.
Before a show, Brittany ensures her voice is in top condition with a vocal warm-up (laryngeal massages, scales & slides, yawns, nasal whines & mix techniques) and sometimes indulges in yoga to calm her nerves. Known for her glittery outfits, she brings more than a touch of sparkle to her performances.
Drawing inspiration from artists like Labrinth, Hozier, and Ariana Grande, Brittany's music reflects a blend of genres and influences. Her early experiences performing, from singing the national anthem at 11 to playing in bars, shaped where she is today.
To discover Brittany's music, listeners can find her on popular streaming platforms under Nice On.
