Jessi Colter

Mirriam Rebecca Joan Brower (née Johnson; born May 25, 1943), known professionally as Jessi Colter, is an American country music singer who is best known for her collaborations with her second husband, Waylon Jennings, her solo albums I'm Jessi Colter, Jessi, and Diamond in The Rough, all of which broke into the US Billboard 200 in 1975 and 1976 respectively, as well as for her 1975 country-pop crossover hit "I'm Not Lisa". Colter was one of the few female artists to emerge from the mid-1970s "outlaw country" movement. After meeting Jennings, Colter pursued a career in country music, releasing her first studio LP in 1970, A Country Star Is Born. Five years later, Colter signed with Capitol Records and released "I'm Not Lisa", which topped the country charts and reached the top five on the pop charts. In 1976, she was featured on the collaboration LP Wanted: The Outlaws, which became an RIAA-certified platinum album.
