Born into a world of creativity, Jane Carrey inherited her father’s artistic spark. Now in her mid-30s, she’s built a quiet but meaningful career of her own as a singer, songwriter, and performer.

She fronted The Jane Carrey Band and even auditioned for American Idol in 2012, performing Bonnie Raitt’s “Something to Talk About.” While she didn’t advance far in the competition, her father was bursting with pride.
