Jill Jack is an American singer-songwriter based in Ferndale, Michigan. As of December 2016, she has released 11 albums, ranging from soul to rock, to folk and country. She leads a band of the same name, as well as a jazz ensemble dedicated to standards, "Jill Jack and the American Songbook Band."

Three of her CDs – Live and Unplugged in 2005, Moon and the Morning After in 2006, Songwriter Sessions in 2010 – won Detroit Music Awards for Outstanding Acoustic/Folk Recording. Writing for Allmusic, Thom Jurek called Moon and the Morning After, "an exceptionally honest rock & roll record, ... one that delivers musically as well as lyrically in spades and diamonds."[1]
