About

Living and working through her life mantra “Work hard, be nice, keep moving,” New England native Jenny Reynolds has called Austin home since 2003, and has been an Official Showcase Artist at the SXSW Music conference twice. She has played at the Bluebird Cafe, Club Passim, the Bitter End, the Philadelphia Folk Festival, the Kerrville Folk Festival, and the Old Settler’s Music Festival. A formidable musician, she taught guitar at the National Guitar Workshop and the University of Texas.

Reynolds connects heart and mind, melody and music like she knows all of us are a little broken. That’s what makes her go from revealing other people’s truths to confessing a few of her own. Her melodies draw you in. But it’s the truths that make you stay a while.

Co-produced in Austin, TX by Mark Hallman (Ani DiFranco, Eliza Gilkyson) and André Moran (Cedar Creek Recording, The Belle Sounds), Reynolds’s current recording “Any Kind of Angel” features BettySoo, Jaimee Harris, Warren Hood, and Scrappy Ju

Music

I play and write Americana music that stands on the shoulders of the Folk Revival. Some of my songs feature Travis Picking, and finger-style blues, which are notably American styles. Favorite songwriters include Lucinda Williams, Hank Williams, James Taylor, The Cowboy Junkies, Townes Van Zandt, and Neil Finn.
