Jennie Lena

No matter where she is or what she does, Jennie Lena stands out. She's real, raw, funny, and her bubbly and unapologetic personality shows her strength and sensitivity, both on and off stage.
She grew up in a family of musicians, from her greatgrandfather to her grandfather, uncles and parents; everybody played an instrument. In each room of the house you could hear different musical styles emerging.
Now Jennie breathes new life into the diverse musical styles she grew up with and loves so well, from Soul, R&B, Jazz, 90's HipHop, Black Gospel and Blues. Blessed with an outstanding voice and a natural gift for songwriting, she is a distinctively emotive artist, combining timeless music with her own contemporary twist.
She is constantly walking the line between pain and hope.

"My mission in life is to spread love, healing, empowerment and joy through words and music. I wanna sing with my heart, make a connection and tell a story through my body and voice...stories about universal love, pain, human struggle, consolation, life & death, humanity, things we all deal with."

PAST & PRESENT
Sometimes is takes years for a person to become an overnight success. From the tender age of 5 until 15 Jennie participated in diverse theatreproductions, and as a child she would often go to her mother's own performances. At the end of Mom's shows Jennie would sing 'Ben', accompanied by her mother on guitar.
"I have warm memories of my mother always playing the guitar at home and singing such beautiful songs. I'd listen in admiration. In my room I had my own little music universe, full of tapes and CD's. My adolescent years were pretty rough, but no matter how lonely or sad I sometimes was, there were always my tapes and CD's, full of music that made my heart beat faster. Music pulled me out many wreckages & hard times."
