the return of Jenny Dont & The Spurs to Aotearoa November / December 2025
Jenny Dont and the Spurs have spent over a decade forging their own path in music, pioneering a unique brand of high-energy Country Western that captivates fans from the traditional Western scene to the raw energy of garage rock. Their captivating stage presence, infectious enthusiasm, and extensive discography have garnered them a global following, leading to tours on continents rarely visited by country bands.
Frontwoman Jenny Dont, known for her strong-willed and independent nature, embodies the authentic outlaw spirit of Country Western music. Her songwriting, influenced by the contrasting landscapes of the Pacific Northwest and Southwestern desert, forms the bedrock of their sound. The band skillfully merges their garage-rock origins with a distinct western flair, characterized by driving tempos, gritty fuzz tones, and a high-octane, rockin western delivery that sets them apart from the herd. Their music authentically captures the outlaw spirit, with hints of gritty surf like Dick Dale, while paying homage to classic country legends like Johnny Paycheck and George Jones.
Now with Buddy Weeks on drums, the band continues to showcase their resilience and fresh energy. Bass player Kelly Halliburton and lead guitarist Christopher March, whose reverb-drenched tones echo the haunting allure of the desert night sky, round out the core. Jenny Dont and the Spurs are dedicated to crafting memorable and authentic music, pulling from a variety of genres to emphasize authenticity over conformity. As Jenny says, Weve got a lot of open road ahead of us.
Much like the rhinestones on their custom outfits, handcrafted by Jenny herself, the band shines brightly, illustrating their dedication to creating memorable and authentic music.
