She is a unique force. Jenie writes her own songs and deliv- ers with a lot of conviction. The night I saw her, she was bare foot, pounding away on the keyboard and singing her heart out. Born in Thailand, raised in Edmonton, Jenie comes from a musi- cal family and very recently relocated in Toronto. Heads up!! This is NOT jazz, but delightful blues and roots.
