Heartbreak Meets Hope: JAELYN’s Acoustic Ballad “Forester’s Plight” Cuts Deep

JAELYN, a dynamic progressive rock/metal ensemble with a nod to NWOTHM, draws inspiration from a spectrum of genres, spanning post-hardcore to heavy metal. Influenced by bands like Coheed and Cambria, In Flames, and Doro, the group unveiled their inaugural EP, "We Begin," in 2022, a project conceived and recorded during the challenges of the pandemic. Since their debut, JAELYN has embarked on a journey that includes the release of several singles, live tours, and the exciting endeavor of crafting their second album. The most recent highlight in their musical journey is the release of the music video for their single, "Sisters Seven," now available on YouTube.

Lead vocalist Jaelyn boasts an extensive musical background, amassing over two decades of experience in writing and performing. Having previously been part of post-hardcore bands affiliated with labels like Stillborn Records—such as Option, Stalemate, and Label the Traitor—Jaelyn more recently collaborated with members of boy sets fire in the Iron Roses. However, JAELYN marks her debut as a solo artist, seizing the role of primary songwriter and frontperson with unwavering passion and creativity.
