| biography |
"The realm of bittersweet is the emotional playground of born and raised New York singer/songwriter Jenny Bruce. Welcoming the eternal struggle between yin and yang, Bruce battles her demons with gratitude and wistful familiarity on her 3rd upcoming release, "Left Of July." Always an observer with an intuitive eye and an open heart, this time an-expecting mother, Bruce looks inward and unfolds a more personal perspective allowing her voice to carry more raw emotion than in her previous releases.
As a versatile and prolific singer/songwriter, Bruce's songs, written on guitar and piano, are triggered by inspiration rather than to suit a specific genre; the fertile depth of her work no doubt influenced by the dynamic and eclectic melting-pot of her Manhattan upbringing. "The amount of sensory input in NYC on a daily basis is intense, to say the least. But it has nurtured me well and I'm kind of hooked on it. Sometimes I do think I've seen it all." With effortless self-trained musicality, her sonorous alto leaves its distinctive fingerprint on everything she sings often drawing comparisons to Mary Chapin Carpenter or Annie Lennox. Fellow singer/songwriters and musicians are often attracted to Bruce's economical, literate writing style and original arrangements reminiscent of artists like Jonatha Brooke and Shawn Colvin." |
