Britt Warner is an artist from Los Angeles who has lent her voice to music for Burberry, Hulu, Netflix, and HBO, covering songs and writing originals in a style she dubs "cinematic pop."

After years of focusing on trailer music and releasing singles along the way, Britt's releasing her first full-length artist album, "The Ransom," as well as a companion book of stories, lyrics, and photos. Collaborators on the 10-track LP include Flea, Troy Everett, John Moran, Taiina, Jamie Biden, Jordan Ware, and Jesse Gallagher.

"My song lyrics are often metaphorical, themed around death, rebirth, and overcoming challenges," she says, "while my other writing is absurdist, sexual, and very direct. To me, it's all part of the same thing, freedom of expression and reflecting the times in one form or another."

Her hands extend beyond the page. Many in the community of Northeast Los Angeles know Britt as "Ms. Fixit," a creative carpenter and painter who takes a wabi sabi approach to beautifying the local homes and businesses peppering the ever-shifting landscape.

"All of my art - and life - is an attempt to know myself better, as well as to work with what I've got in a playful and curious way."

Britt's voice alternately intimates her fears and soars beyond the limitations of a comfort zone, moving listeners to do the same.
