Jenny Don't & The Spurs return to the Benelux next spring
19-12-2024Pacific Northwest raconteurs, Jenny Don’t And The Spurs, have spent over a decade building a reputation as hardworking and musically-driven stalwarts of the Country Western scene. Despite facing challenges like Jenny's vocal surgery in 2019 and the loss of drummer Sam Henry to cancer in 2022, they've remained resilient and fully committed to their musical journey. Their most recent record 'Broken Hearted Blue', evokes the gritty, sepia-toned tint of an old Hollywood western paired with 60’s-style fuzzy guitars and old-school country music storytelling.
Jenny Don’t must have gotten tangled up in Wanda Jackson’s DNA somewhere along the line. Cowpunkery is Don’t’s advertised stock-in-trade, but Jackson’s rockabilly heart bleeds into her music like a busted artery squirting in all directions. Her latest, record trot out a lively collection of thumpers and twangers. This isn’t one-label-fits-all material. Even though the cows are punking and twanging, there are all sorts of stylistic goodies bubbling up to keep your ears on high alert. But sonically and aesthetically, "Broken Hearted Blue" provides a nice dip in the bygone Country & Western timestream that works as well today as it did back then.
In May and June, Jenny Don't And The Spurs will return to the Benelux for a string of shows:
04/05: Goes, NL - 't Beest
31/05: Gierle, BE - JH 't Hoekske
08/06: Knesselare, BE - Roots in the Jar
