About Me

Singer/Songwriter Jenny Keefe brings ambience and introspect to her acoustic performances endearing audiences of all ages at coffee houses, colleges, and bars throughout Illinois.Described by some as a folk balladeer and others as soulful and urban, emotionally moving is always a common thread.Her passionate vocal delivery proves to be as captivating as the songs themselves. The stories they present range anywhere from comparing shameless flirtations with applying for a job or the changing of the weather to life's trials and tribulations. She evokes memories of childhood along with experiences of growing and changing from year to year. She introduces you to characters who "wear their will down to the bone" and yet "never loose their strength", some songs visit those who are intuitive or are perhaps just crossing over the line of mental and emotional boundaries.Whether she is singing about painting landscapes, traveling the country, dancing ancient dances or the conscious state of society; Jackson Avenue Coffee Shop writes, "Jenny Keefe will woo you into a beautiful place with her enchanting vocals"Look for her seventeen track debut "Pot Belly Prizm" as well as "Wellspring" her second offering; a new album is presently in the works.
