Jeni Magana

The Polaroid Truth has been hailed as "a unity of opposites that is sure to warm your evening and enrich your soul" (East Village Coffee Lounge). Coming from very different backgrounds, Jeff Fettig and Jeni Magana aim to do just that - combine their unique experiences to deliver an entertaining but honest message. Their music has been compared to Damien Rice and Brett Dennen, but they are quickly carving out their own niche in the acoustic genre.

The duo recently spent a month on tour in California promoting their debut release, ”Last Day as Children”. They also made a special live appearance on the CosMix 92.1 FM, where they were said to be "better than Damien (Rice)" in an interview. Their track Mind Over Heart is now making regular playlists on the online radio stations; Sentient Radio and String-Theory, as well as National Public Radio WJCT 89.9 FM based in Jacksonville, FL.

While at Berklee College of Music, he formed a rock group that played several shows in the area.
