“With her authentic lyrics and smooth voice, Jenny Morgan can’t help but grab your attention. She puts a contemporary swing on folk music, and gives listeners a sense of her home in Texas. The band, using every instrument in the book, including the fiddle and violin bring the sound together into something modern, with a traditional folk influence. The music alone is beautiful, but Jenny’s lyrics make it complete and powerful. This is what I enjoy about an artist. I was able to get a sense of where she was from, with songs like “Runnin’ With the Brazos.” I love music that I can relate to. I like to pop on my headphones and listen to something that is going to make me feel something real. Jenny accomplishes this superbly because she’s a genuine artist with a love for creating music so if you like rich folk music with a contemporary kick, you will love Jenny Morgan.”
