Description
Two time Juno award winner Jenny Whiteley's new recording. "The Original Jenny Whiteley" takes a traditional route in a nod to Jenny's musical pedigree and her father's and uncle's well-known band from the 70s, "The Original Sloth Band."
The recording was made at H. Chris Brown's Wolfe Island Ontario's "The Post Office" studio with Jenny's pals and musical comrades Sam Allison and Teillard Frost: aka Sheesham and Lotus.
The songs on "The Original Jenny Whiteley" range from bluegrass, jug band music to old time and early jazz. There are a fistful of new original songs here, too! Along with vocals and guitar, the songs included here feature jug, banjo, harmonica, fiddle, bones, jaw harp and whistling!
From the opening hit of professional reality in Chris Coole's "$100" referencing the working musician's lot, to the a cappella Georgia Sea Islands inspired "Things Are Coming My Way", featuring Chris and Ken Whiteley, this record is a gem of a collection.
