Hello!
See below a podcast recorded with Marcus Reeves featuring me and Tricity Vogue, each of us plugging gigs etc... I sang a couple of songs...Skinny Jim and the song without a proper name..neither of which were on here. Was a lot of fun to do. Was almost like being on the radio!
I'm on at about 09.50 for chat and Skinny Jim and 15.48 for the other song..
JENNY'S TIME OF THE MONTH: My monthly night at Native Tongue in Epsom is no longer for a while due to budget restraints at the venue in these credit crunched times.. hopefully it will be back with some really great acts and a slightly new format. I will let you know of any developments...(click me with the knitting bag below for updates)

I am busy writing new songs, newest one called 'Nothing's Changed'...inspired by some recent channel hopping disappointment.
I haven't played as many gigs as I could be mostly because I am so busy with Funsense but there are a few coming up...next one currently being 12th February For Matt's Comedy Club in Worthing.
*Randomness*
...And yes I was on the Culture Show in the Mark Kermode and Simon Mayo bit..incase you were wondering...only in the audience but managed to take up about 2 minutes of screen time rambling on about how a bodyguard character in Abba The Movie is now Lou Carpenter in Neighbours...
I'm sure there were people there with far more culturally helpful facts who didn't have their contributions shown. Oh well. I'm so sorry about that.
Had the pleasure of Ellie Lawson's music recently where she introduced her last song and said it was called, 'Stuck to my guns'. I thought she said it was called 'Stuck to my gums' and was immediately expecting her to sing about things that stick to your gums, like popcorn and cornflakes...but no. This is not what she was singing about at all.

WHAT DOES JENNY DO?
Jenny likes singing songs that make people laugh. She also likes singing songs that make people go 'mmmmm' in a contemplative and happy kind of way. Sometimes people give her money. Whether it is money to keep her singing , money to buy a cd or money to make her be quiet is of no consequence. It is still money.
She is based in Epsom, Surrey but has travelled all over performing her songs.
AND WHAT STARTED ALL THIS OFF THEN?
Jenny loves music hall and variety and when she was nowt but a lass spent a lot of her time in the Stepping Out Amateur Revue Company singing old time music hall songs which got her involved in all kinds of fings. It all started with her skill for entertaining the crowds with beautiful renditions of ‘Little Dick’ and ‘The Marrow Song’ which involved a large green vegetable and a lot of imagination....basically she loves performing and has been lucky enough to present her own material sharing theatrical bills with Will Self, Adam Buxton, Chris Green, Dylan Moran, Tim Vine, Paul Kerensa and Shazia Mirza...
