Jill Phillips is an American Contemporary Christian singer-songwriter based out of Nashville, Tennessee, who brings a folk-rock sound. Phillips got her start in a music career when she graduated from Belmont University in 1998. Her first, self-titled album was produced by grammy-award winning Wayne Kirkpatrick who has produced for such artists as Amy Grant, Garth Brooks, and Susan Ashton. Kirkpatrick said that it was "the honesty of her [Phillips'] songs, the charm of her voice, and the strength of her character that drew me to her as an artist -- I knew that being involved with someone like that would be time well spent." Following the release of first album, Phillips toured with Caedmon?s Call and Bebo Norman. Soon Phillips made her jump from the sidelines by recording her next album, God and Money, independently. This album became her biggest break into the CCM industry and was raved by CCM Magazine as reader?s choice for Independent Artist of the Year in 2002.
