JENN FRANKLIN - BIOGRAPHY

From the heartland of Kansas , Jenn Franklin brings a refreshingly uncontrived style, with a powerful vulnerability that is catching the ears of industry executives. �When I first heard that voice, I told Jenn to stay away from vocal coaches at all costs!...It would be like trying to improve on Tiger Wood's golf swing,� Bart Herbison, Executive Director, Nashville Songwriters Association International, NSAI.

Jenn was invited to showcase during the SXSW music conference in Austin this year. She has also performed in 2NMC, Nashville 's New Music Conference and ASCAP writers' showcases, where some of the organization's most promising writers are selected to display their talents for selected publishers and A&R representatives.

She is now recording/co-producing an 6-song EP scheduled for release April 2006. From whispered secrets to bellowed revelations, Franklin 's music promises to take listeners on a ride that is anything but predictable.

With the reemergence of the piano singer/songwriters, audiences are eager to indulge this taste on their musical palates. Jenn performs with a maturity and unexpected potency that only wets their appetite. Comparisons have been drawn to artists such as Fiona Apple, Sarah McLachlan, and Joni Mitchell.
