WWW.JENNADAMS.COM The latest release by Jenn Adams, Under the Gypsy Sky, continues to raise the bar for songwriters everywhere. Creativity, originality and quality are all represented in this fine collection of songs. This is a CD packed with variety, and still says true to the artist. Of the 14 tracks on the album there are 13 originals and 1 cover. The songs encompass many themes. "Four White Ponies" tells a tale of a poor farmer and his daughter in a time gone by. "Homeward Bound" identifies with the restless traveler in all of us. From lonely widows to good old-fashioned love stories, this album covers it all. The production is solid and backing musicians are pleasantly present, while staying true to the centerpiece: Adams and her guitar. Not many artists can still take pride in crafting an album as it's own entity that takes the listener on a cohesive journey. Under the Gypsy Sky does this successfully. Adams is a true musician sculpting her craft and satisfying many listeners along the way. The Kansas native was raised on the driving grooves and lyrical roots of the 60's legends. As a skillful and evocative singer, Jenn's original sound mirrors the traditions of Bonnie Raitt and Joni Mitchell. As a guitar virtuoso, Jenn's trademark brand of bluesy folk and velvet smooth vocals sets her apart from the competition. * Grand Prize Winner, 2003 USA Songwriting Contest * Prior to her move to Nashville TN in 2004, Jenn Adams generated a sizable buzz in the Northwest with her funky guitar pop and sassy vocals.
