Kjersti Long

Rock Prodigy, Kjersti Long, pronounced ‘care-sti’ is a 16 year-old singer-songwriter hailing from Clinton, NJ, currently based in Utah. Long has been developing her artistry since 9 years old when she wrote her first song.

Since then, Long has developed into a vocal force to be reckoned with. In the past five years she has headlined at some of the most iconic venues in the country: The Bitter End in NYC, in San Diego at The House of Blues, in Asbury Park NJ at The Stone Pony (3x’s), The Velour in Provo Utah, in New York City at The Blarney Stone (N.O.R.D.), M1-5 Lounge, The Delancey, and the famed Apollo Theatre in Harlem to name a few.

Last year she signed a distribution deal with Warner Brothers and released her first two songs on the deal “Boys in Jersey” and “IDC” a duet with Ryan Follesé of Hot Chelle Rae fame. 2023 will see additional singles “Burn It Down” and “Sad Song” released as well as her first EP.

Kjersti is determined to be a voice of women empowerment and hopes her music can be a pillar of hope to the downtrodden. She is over the moon excited to partner with Melissa and this creative team to deliver such an important message through music and the spoken word. www.kjerstilong.com
