Beloved international folk band, The Wailin’ Jennys, started as a happy accident when a group of solo singers and songwriters got together for a one-time-only performance at a tiny guitar shop. Founding members Ruth Moody and Nicky Mehta, along with New York-based Heather Masse, continue to create some of the most exciting music in the folk-roots scene!In 2004, The Wailin’ Jennys released their first full-length album, 40 Days, netting a 2005 Juno Award (Canadian Grammy) for Roots & Traditional Album of the Year. The Jennys exploded onto the roots music scene, performing at packed venues worldwide. The Jennys’ sophomore album, Firecracker, was a powerful follow-up to their career-making debut and spent over 56 weeks on the Billboard charts. Artistically, the record found The Jennys stepping out of the folk realm and into the world of alt-country, pop, and rock. It was nominated for a Juno Award and won a 2007 Folk Alliance Award for Contemporary Release of the Year. The trio’s 2009 release, Live at Mauch Chunk Opera House, also spent over a year on the Billboard bluegrass charts.
