Jenny Whiteley
An accomplished and gifted, singer and songwriter whose lyrics capture the soul of real life experiences, Jenny Whiteley makes you believe she has decades of anecdotes to draw from. She does: three. She has been performing for two decades already – yet she's only 32!
Jenny’s fans have been following her career for many years. From her days as the singer/bass player with the Toronto upstart bluegrass band Heartbreak Hill (who garnered a Juno nomination for their only recording “Heartbreak Hill”, in 1998) to the release of “Jenny Whiteley” which won her the Best Roots/Traditional – Solo Juno in 2000, and the touring that followed that release through the States and Canada. Jenny is well known as a ballad writer, John Tyrone, Gloria and Lonnie being some of her most recognized characters. She is also known for stepping outside the confines of the traditional content of a bluegrass song, covering topics from stalkers to hermit-lady farmers and face-down-on-the-floor drunks on her first album.
