About Betsy

Betsy Jayne is a Folktronica artist who grew up on a hippy commune, traveled extensively, and eventually settled down to pursue a career as a psychotherapist. At 21, Betsy's passion for electronic music fueled her curiosity to explore the rave scene in San Francisco and eventually take a life-changing trip to India at 24. There, she embraced the music of the country, picking up instruments like drum, Indian vocals, and flute. She learned to speak Hindi and started a business with Harijan tribes. She taught English and sold her jewelry on the streets in Tokyo and in European markets, and spent much of her time hiking in the Nepali, Indian, and Tibetan Himalayan mountains. In India, she began her lifelong practice of mindfulness meditation. She eventually found herself in Nashville, where she dove into her passion for electronic music, synthesizers, and digital production, resulting in her more recent musical style of Indie Folktronica music. She  is now a psychotherapist.
