Video Interview: Jamie Lynn Spears begins “The Journey” to country music stardom

She’s got the name. She’s got the voice. Now all Jamie Lynn Spears needs is a chance.

And she’s taking it. With a well-documented and highly scrutinized past, Spears, now 23, is going all-in on a shot at country music stardom. In March of this year she released the EP “The Journey,” a five-song sampler that puts her ample vocal talents on full display, simultaneously silencing doubters and exciting her fans for what the future might hold. GroundSounds caught up with the Louisiana native backstage at the 2014 Buckle Up Festival in Cincinnati for an exclusive video interview on music, marriage, and a forthcoming full-length album.
