Jenna McLean Quartet

A young jazz vocalist delightfully blowing off the bullshit of the modern world leads with her old school soul and delivers the goods. Whether scatting on Gershwin or giving good reading to Joni Mitchell, her pure performance is a welcome tonic to jaded ears that just want it true and direct." - Chris Spector, Midwest Record
