Welcome

Inspired by the Gordon Lightfoot song of the same name, Portland, Oregon's COTTON JENNY bears little sonic resemblance to the folksy Canadian troubadour. Nods to folk are however common, as are bumps with rock swells and jazz-tinted shenanigans stumbling out the back door with a Texas swing by way of the Bayou. Confused? You won't be. Cotton Jenny has an ace in their pockets. Her name is Jennifer Foust.
Foust leads the band with a pitch-perfect, yet sultry torch that lights fires while maintaining the cool breeze only a few special groove-digging ladies have ever matched. Her songs, born of the heart (and an acoustic guitar) eat pop for breakfast while Tim Acock and Fred Smith draw soundscapes that only further carve a unique kinda niche within the new post-modern classics arena. myspace.com/cottonjennyswings
