The title of Jenna Nicholls’ new album The Commuter is fitting in every sense - the story of a journey both musical and personal. In Jenna’s words: “The songs curated here represent a time of transition: from residing in NYC to a new home in upstate NY, from life in a corporate world to finding my voice in a creative one.” The recording signals a departure and new beginnings: a new producer - multiple Grammy winner Larry Campbell, new record label – Hudson Valley based Royal Potato Family, a lusher sound with inventive, fleshed-out arrangements and an astoundingly wide-ranging collection of original songs. The constant: Jenna’s unique ability to transport the listener to a different place and time with her writing and inspired singing.

Hailing from the small town of Irwin, PA near Pittsburgh, after college Jenna set her sights east to test her wings as a songwriter and performer. Initially trying Boston, she ultimately gravitated to the creative hotbed of Manhattan’s Lower East Side forging lasting friendships with other like-minded artists and musicians. Nicholls made three albums on her own dime: Curled Up Toes in Red Mary Janes, The Blooming Hour, and Radio Parade. The albums revealed a restless muse and a theme that would be a constant for Nicholls: a love of vintage music – anything from classic music films like “Singin’ in the Rain” to Bessie Smith.
