I have very few bands for which I will buy all their CDs and never tire of their music. Thanks to Cynthia once upon a time in FL, I was introduced to the Jenneys.
The Wailin Jenneys are a 3 woman trio with admirable vocal quality, poetic lyrics, impressive instrumental skills (each plays several instruments), and riveting harmonies. This Canadian group sings soulful, folk-inspired music with a dash of gospel, jazz, and English/Irish/Welsh ballads.
My husband and I were absolutely mesmerized at their concert this week. Live YouTube vids. do nothing to show the haunting beauty of their perfect harmonization and the gracefulness and passion with which they play their instruments.
That being said, here are some clips to check out:
To get a sense of their harmony and chill style:
Beautiful Dawn--Great Lyrics!:
[Old vid.--girl with the red hair has been replaced by Heather--AWESOME jazz singer]
One of my new favorite songs:
Just something beautiful:
Enjoy!!!

Oooooooh! Arlington is my fav...but then again, they all are right up there ;^) I have to admit, I am a bit jealous you had a chance to see them live! Thanks for the reminder to bring out their cds again. I was in need of a new rotation!
Oh...and love the new design!
