TLR FEATURED ARTIST

SJ McDonald

SJ McDonald has been playing The Listening Room and Song Suffragettes for a while now, but what I love about her music is that it’s raw and real. She’s originally from Virginia, where she grew up on a cattle farm and started writing music around 9 years old. After she came to Nashville, she honed her writing skills and has really blossomed as a writer, performer, and artist. Her latest single “Who Hurt You” takes me back to that sound of 90’s and 2000’s country music, which makes sense because that’s the music she grew up on and fell in love with. That song, along with other releases like “Rosemary” and “Hot Damn” are so great. It’s just a matter of time for SJ and I’m pumped to be able to highlight her this month! Go follow and listen to her music!
