The Wailin’ Jennys began as a spontaneous collaboration between solo singer-songwriters at a small guitar shop in Winnipeg, Manitoba. What started as a one-time event quickly evolved into a renowned folk trio composed of founding members Ruth Moody, Nicky Mehta, and later, Taos-based Heather Masse. Their debut album 40 Days (2004) received widespread critical acclaim and earned them a Juno Award, launching them onto the international roots music scene. Appearances on A Prairie Home Companion helped boost their profile, leading to sold-out performances across North America and beyond. With their soaring harmonies and refined musicianship, the trio captivated audiences and critics alike.Over the years, The Wailin’ Jennys have continued to expand their musical boundaries. Their 2006 album Firecracker introduced elements of alt-country, pop, and rock, and spent over a year on the Billboard charts. Live at Mauch Chunk Opera House (2009) showcased their dynamic stage presence, while 2011’s Bright Morning Stars – recorded with award-winning producer Mark Howard – combined fresh innovative sounds with the band’s signature harmonies, earning them another Juno Award. In 2017, the band celebrated their 15th anniversary with Fifteen, a carefully curated collection of some of their favorite songs, highlighting their heartfelt vocals, otherworldly harmonies, and sophisticated arrangements. The Jennys are currently on tour, while also road-testing new songs for an upcoming studio album.
