I've been meaning to post this for a while, but Jenny Jenkins, a quirky rising singer-songwriter from Olympia Washington, has released her second full length album, Oventoucher. I was anxious to hear this album when I saw it was released by Bicycle Records, which is home to artists such as June Madrona, Polka Dot Dot Dot, and Yes Please. While this was my first introduction to Jenkins, I haven't been able to stop listening since. Jenkins lyrics are honest, and slightly raunchy (but not distasteful), discussing issues of love, sex, and everything in between. Each song is simple and composed primarily of charming ukulele accompaniments, with horns and light percussion sprinkled in during some tracks. Jenkins' wit is undeniable, and the frankness found in her lyrics makes this album irresistible. Each song is filled with passion, and this album is worth your time, so check it out!
