This is a band that Jesse and I are obsessed with lately. I played one song for my students in Study Hall. The minute it was over, one of them said, “Can you put more of that on?” and all the other students started agreeing, saying, “Who WAS that?” Yay for my kids, they like good music!
Anyway, here they are, The Wailin’ Jennys. 3 girls from Canada. They sound a little bit like Mindy Smith, Alison Krauss and that girl from Nickel Creek, all rolled into one. These two videos aren’t even their best songs, in my opinion, but you can see some of their best ones if you go to their MySpace page.
