SJ McDonald

SJ McDonald is an Appalachian-raised cowgirl whose music fuses the nostalgia of 90’s country and raw, contemporary storytelling.
Hailing from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, SJ developed her tenacity and dedication working on her family’s 5-generation cattle and turkey farm. Her love for authentic country music grew through the static of a farm-truck radio, and by the age of 9, she was already
penning songs, eventually leading her own band through high school.

At 18, she took to the neon streets of Nashville, where she spent six years performing for tips on Lower Broadway. During that time she immersed herself in the city’s music scene, perfecting a high-energy, infectious performance style that’s true to her. This year, SJ has
been on a self-booked coast-to-coast tour, bringing her down-home sound to audiences nationwide.

SJ McDonald isn’t just a performer; she’s a musical powerhouse whose broken-in boots and unyielding spirit light up every stage she steps onto. As she takes on rodeo and dive bar crowds across the country, her captivating blend of grit and grace promises to keep the heart of country music beating strong.

Autumn has also landed cuts from country artists Mickey Guyton, Matt Stell, Trea Landon, Mae Estes, Emily Ann Roberts, Britnee Kellogg and many more.
