jenny owen youngs



Ok... yes, I do realize that I haven't written anything in a while. It's 99% due to the fact that I was suffering from a rare disease called cookieoverdosus caused by someone force feeding me 30 dozen chocolate chip cookies in one sitting. The other 1% is due to sheer laziness. ANYWAY...

Jenny Owen Youngs. Is she a good musician? Yes. Does she know how to rock? For sure. Does she like cookies? Let's hope so. Miss Youngs hails from New Jersey and currently has recurring residencies at both the Living Room (NYC) and the Hotel Cafe (LA). Her voice is fierce and her music is well-crafted. I enjoy the simplistic nature of her songs. Too often you find singer-songwriters who cloud their music with overly dramatic hoopla instead of just letting their obvious talent shine through. Such is not the case with this gal.

Witness:

"fuck was i" mp3

Miss Youngs also does a cover of Britney Spear's "Slave 4 U" that is not to be missed. You can find the cover on Interlude Magazine's myspace page by clicking here.

Visit Jenny at her website and listen to more songs by going here. If you are in Los Angeles, go say hello to her at the Hotel Cafe March 24th and 30th. Do it!
