BIO
Jenny is a freelance Bassist based out of Brooklyn, New York, and is currently playing for the 2021/2022 US National Tour of "An Officer and a Gentleman."
​
Back in New York, Jenny has enjoyed performing at venues such as the The Triad Theatre, New World Stages, The Pit, BRIC TV, Mercury Lounge, Rockwood Music Hall and many more. Jenny is also currently the Bassist for "Jack Mogi and the After Party" and "The Recipe."
​
Previously, Jenny has had the privilege of playing with the all female rocksteady band, Steady Betty, based out of Burlington, Vermont, from 2013-2016. The deep, warm grooves of rocksteady/reggae that are firmly grounded in her heart have taught her how to be a reliable, solid player. Jen has also played in the funk/rocknroll nine piece ensemble Nico Suave & the Bodacious Supreme, from 2015 to 2017, specializing in funky covers from Stevie Wonder to Tower of Power, and has done a special run with a Led Zeppelin Tribute set added to the repertoire.
​
Jenny is forever grateful and inspired by the grooves of Pino Palladino, Frances "Rocco" Prestia, Jone Paul Jones, James Jamerson, Paul Chambers, and Anthony Jackson.
