Jamie Lynn Spears, born April 4, 1991, in McComb, is the younger sister of Britney Spears. While still a baby, Spears moved to New York City with her mother and older sister in an effort to build Britney's music career. When Britney hit big in the late '90s, Jamie-Lynn began expressing interest in following in her sister's footsteps.

In April 2010, Spears moved to Nashville to pursue her long desired music career. Following the move Spears began work on a country music album with a number of local music producers. On November 7, 2011, Spears held a small concert at the Rutledge in Nashville in which she performed a set of original songs.
