Current mood:  adventurous
Well- it's been a long time since I've posted anything... sorry about that!
I have finished recording the new cd, Chasing Giants and I'm thrilled!
So many good friends lent their time and talent to it- I hope to repay them someday!
Now it's off getting mastered and printed and all that good stuff and I'm off playing gigs again... Playing some festivals this summer- just played Hudson Clearwater and Mountain Jam. They were a blast!!! Looking forward to Gathering of The Vibes and Magnolia Fest. If you're not into the festival scene, I'm also playing all over the northeast this summer. I'm becoming quite the touring musician and considering my fear of driving, this is something!!! 
I'm absolutely loving the new venues I'm playing in and everyone has been amazing-- so supportive!! I really thank you for buying all the merchandise, listening in the rain, becoming my friend on myspace, and joining my band page on facebook.
I hope it doesn't take me a year to update again, I promise to be better with this.
Thanks again to Trina, Al, Noem, Kevin, and Rich for sharing your talent on the record and thanks again to all of you for listening!!!
Speak to you gain soon-
Jennie

A native from South Carolina, singer/songwriter Jennie Arnau captures your attention with her gusty, fragile voice and bluesy, bold and bittersweet music that is quite distinctive. With the production savvy of Grammy-winner Trina Shoemaker (Sheryl Crow, Queens of the Stone Age, Emmylou Harris) and Arnau's good songwriting, Mt. Pleasant, is finely crafted and a richly textured blend of country, pop and rock.   While Jennie shows she doesn't take herself too seriously, her lyrics give listeners an honest look at her life, both the ups and downs. One of the most extraordinary tracks on the album, "You're Not Alone, " inspired by a friend battling with cancer is anything but melancholic. Arnau's third album has mastered versatility with her brusque wail of "Who Will Come With Me," to jagged "Hang The Moon," to the coyly ambiguous tale of "Margaret."  Music News Nashville

When I first saw the title to Jennie Arnau's new album, Mt. Pleasant, I instinctively thought of the little town in South Carolina of the same name, but assumed that Arnau meant something different…she didn't.  The album was in fact named for that town.  And although she's based in New York these days, she's originally from South Carolina.  Mt. Pleasant is an eleven song disc featuring production by Trina Shoemaker (Dixie Chicks, Lucinda Williams) but more importantly featuring good songwriting from Arnau.  She often refers to it as southern rock, but don't come looking for Skynyrd or Charlie Daniels here.  Tracks like "Holidays" may fit better under "southern-fried-jazz" while others like "You're Not Alone" (my favorite from the disc) sound a bit like Train fronted by Kelly Willis.  Jennie also shows she doesn't take herself too seriously (a very important quality in this business) with lyrics like, "You smoke when you get drunk and stupid" on the poppy "Bottle Rocket."  Overall this is a very strong release from Arnau running the gauntlet in style and character where each song leaves you guessing what's coming next.  I'm sure we'll all be hearing a lot more from her in the near future.   www.Twangville.com
