Jenny Jenkins

Singer and Songwriter

I will be offering songs as a form of musical divination with Andras Jones of the Radio 8 Ball show at the Oracle Gathering.

I play the uke and sing, sort of funny/sad/dirty songs. All about sex and death and funny stuff that happens and the distances between people, which is what I am primarily interested in or "obsessed" with. I was in some bands for years, notably SuperDuo and Encyclopedia of Fun. Now I am solo and I can do whatever I want sort of. I am about to embark on 3 month national tour! So let's hang out and have some fun, OK? You can buy most of my old CD's at www.bicyclerecords.com and the k records website and now you can also buy my amazing new CD, Oventoucher! How exciting! Bitch Magazine gave a really good review of Oventoucher recently, in the "Loudness" issue. They said, "Much of Oventoucher sounds like Mirah or Jolie Holland at first listen, but the work of those otherwise excellent songstresses seems fusty and humorless compared to Jenkins's songs of troubled love, with their frank sexual references and droll, Morressey-esque turns of phrase." So there you go.
