The Wailin’ Jennys are Nicky Mehta, Ruth Moody and Heather Masse — three distinct voices that together make an achingly perfect vocal sound.
Starting as a happy accident of solo singer/songwriters getting together for a one-time-only performance at a tiny guitar shop in Winnipeg, Manitoba, The Wailin’ Jennys have grown over the years into one of today’s most beloved international folk acts. Founding members Moody and Mehta along with New York-based Masse continue to create some of the most exciting music on the folk-roots scene, stepping up their musical game with each critically lauded recording, and thrilling audiences with their renowned live performances.
The Wailin’ Jennys first full-length album, 40 Days (2004), won a Juno Award and launched the trio into the roots music scene, bolstered by frequent appearances on Garrison Keillor’s A Prairie Home Companion. The follow-up, Firecracker (2006), received a Folk Alliance Award. After 2009’s Live at Mauch Chunk Opera House spent a year on the Billboard bluegrass charts, 2011’s Bright Morning Stars netted the group a second Juno Award. Their latest album, Fifteen (2017), commemorated The Wailin’ Jennys fifteenth anniversary and earned the band another Juno nomination.
Currently on tour, the Jennys are road-testing new songs for an upcoming studio album.
