EP 102: The Sunshine Effect: How Avery Finds Light in Every Note

On this episode of The Jazz Flyte Podcast, I had the absolute joy of sitting down with the radiant force that is Avery Sunshine. If you’ve ever wondered what sunshine sounds like, tune in—because Avery brings it. We talk about everything from the origin of her stage name to her Grammy win, and how her journey from a musical household in Chester, PA shaped her unforgettable voice and message.

Avery shares how growing up with a literal soundtrack in the background—from the beauty salon in her house to family jam sessions—laid the foundation for the artist she is today. She dives into how music has always been her compass, guiding her through creativity, marriage, motherhood, and everything in between. She opens up about the soulful collaboration with Boney James on their song Honestly—and how it took locking herself in a closet to finish it.

We laugh, we reflect, and we explore the importance of team, time, and trusting your voice. Avery gives us a sneak peek of what fans can expect from her upcoming Cleveland show on August 23rd, and the energy she brings every time she takes the stage.

This episode is full of warmth, wisdom, and inspiration—just like Avery herself. Whether you're a longtime fan or just discovering her, you'll walk away with a little more sunshine in your soul.
