Jess Glynne

Jess Glynne, born Jessica Hannah Glynne on October 20, 1989, in the Hampstead area of London, England, is a British singer and songwriter who has achieved remarkable chart success in the United Kingdom. Raised in a musical household with a family of mixed heritage, she developed a love for soul and pop music from an early age. Before launching her solo career, she worked with various songwriters and producers, honing her craft and developing the powerful vocal style that would become her trademark.

Glynne first came to public attention through her collaborations with the electronic group Clean Bandit on the 2014 single “Rather Be,” which reached number one in the UK and became a global hit, winning a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. She also featured on Route 94’s “My Love,” another UK number one hit. These collaborations established her as one of the most in-demand voices in British pop music and set the stage for her solo career.

Her debut album, I Cry When I Laugh, was released in 2015 and debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart. The album featured hit singles including “Hold My Hand,” “Don’t Be So Hard on Yourself,” and “Take Me Home,” all of which reached number one on the UK Singles Chart. This made Glynne the first British female solo artist to have five number one singles in the UK. Her second album, Always in Between, followed in 2018 and also debuted at number one, featuring the hit single “I’ll Be There,” which gave her a record-breaking seventh UK number one as a British female solo artist.

Jess Glynne’s net worth of approximately $8 million has been built through her chart-topping singles, platinum-selling albums, and extensive touring across the UK and Europe. She has also earned income through brand endorsements, festival appearances, and songwriting royalties. Despite taking a step back from the spotlight at various points to focus on her wellbeing, Glynne remains one of the most commercially successful British female artists of her generation.
