About Brittany

Brittany Stephenson is a vocalist and performance artist based in Dallas, Texas. Raised in a West Texas musical family, Brittany grew up surrounded by lightening rods - artists, storytellers, and truth-tellers who taught her that vulnerability is power.

From 2013-2021, Brittany performed 80+ museum concerts at major institutions including the Smithsonian, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Crystal Bridges, and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts as vocalist for The Coverlets, a duo with art historian and curator Leo Mazow. Together they created intimate performances exploring American cultural narratives through song and storytelling, developing a practice of using music to create spaces where audiences could witness what's usually hidden about being human.

Brittany has fronted several bands and musical groups from high school choir to, Voxana, Wini Rubi and the Alter Egos, Nuclear Henhouse and more.

After stepping away from performance to focus on motherhood, Brittany has re-emerged with a multimedia practice that integrates painting, installation, and embodied vocal performance. Her work explores what she calls "little confessions" - the universal human experiences we carry in isolation, the stories we tell ourselves, and the ways authenticity gets buried under mental chatter and self-protection.

Now working primarily as a solo performance artist, Brittany creates work that admits what we usually hide about being human. Her current piece, GOSSIP, is a 60-minute performance examining how the stories in our heads shape our bodies, our choices, and our capacity for authentic connection. Her voice remains her primary instrument, accompanied by guitar and ukulele.
