Austin, TX, USA

In the Americana scene, pay attention to Cece Yentzen. With a silky voice and nostalgic songwriting, listeners often compare her to Joni Mitchell. Cece charms her listeners through the use of mindful dissonance, alternate tunings, evocative melodies, and lyrical imagery. Cece was destined to be a musician. She began classical training on piano at five and sang in choirs from preschool through college. After college, she settled for a non-musical career until a severe accident set her back on her intended path. During her recovery, Cece's fiancé came home with a guitar and her songwriting began. Now, Cece's singing and songwriting are born from her southern roots and maturity. The songs on her debut EP explore the dark and light facets of humanity from regret, betrayal, and fear to trust, gratitude, nostalgia, and unconditional love.
