Jaffe (born January 29, 1986) is a
singer-songwriter from Denton who
self-released her first EP titled Even Born Again, which was
recognized by Rolling
Stone and the Dallas Observer. In 2009 she was signed to Kirtland Records and released her first full-length album, Suburban
Nature, in May 2010.[3][4] She has previously toured with Lou Barlow, Norah Jones, Blitzen Trapper and Chelsea Wolfe, as well as fellow bands Midlake, Old 97's and Centro-matic.In 2011, she released The Way Sound Leaves a Room, which was touted as an EP that included a DVD of her performance at Wyly Theatre in Dallas that February. This release included a cover of a Drake song: "Shut it Down". It was with this release that she started moving away from an acoustic "Folk" sound to a more orchestral "Indie-Rock" sound, but it was only a hint at what was to come.
In 2012, she opened on the New Multitudes Tour where she introduced fans to songs from her upcoming album. On April 21st, she dropped her latest LP: The Body Wins, produced by John Congleton. On December 11, 2012, she performed "Talk", a single from that album, on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
