Meet Theresa

In a Tizzy is the solo project of Theresa Layne - a singer, guitarist, and fearless storyteller blending punk-kissed folk soul with expressive, room-filling broadway vocals. A professional musical theatre performer with stage, film, and television experience, Theresa doesn’t just sing a song - she inhabits it. Her influences include Sara Bareilles, KT Tunstall, Dusty Springfield, and Brandi Carlile; her spirit is entirely her own.

At its heart, In a Tizzy is about women stepping up to the mic, owning their stories, and turning up the volume on their joy.
