biographical info
An accomplished, gifted, and rewarded singer and songwriter whose lyrics capture the soul of real life experiences, Jenny Whiteley would have you believe she has decades of anecdotes to draw from.
Her evocative, self-titled debut won the Juno Award for Best Roots & Traditional Recording: Solo in March 2001. Being a prodigy of such a musical family, meant her destiny was determined long ago.
Her peers have recently recognized Jenny’s incredible voice. Prairie Oyster invited Jenny to sing on their re-released “Man In The Moon” (a song written by Jenny’s father Chris, incidentally), and that is Jenny singing background vocals on Sarah Harmer’s hit song “Basement Apartment.”
Jenny has been awarded showcase opportunities at a number of exclusive North American festivals, including the Ontario Council of Folk Festivals, The North American Folk Alliance, and South By Southwest Music Festival & Conference.
