Jenny Dragon
When Jenny Dragon invited us do to a session on their friends roof in the south loop/Maxwell st. neighborhood of Chicago, we had no idea just how great a view of the city we would have until we got there. After trudging up not three or four, but FIVE flights of stairs we were greeted with hands down the most spectacular view that we have ever been privileged to capture! Couple that with an outstanding old-time, folksy sound and an unbelievably tight performance and you have the makings of a tremendous evening.
And as if that wasn’t yet enough, our gracious hosts actually catered the event! This was an absolute first for the Rooftop guys, and one that we are truly thankful for! The first song Old Paint is one of four that the band performed on that perfect night in the city. Between the bands artistry and welcoming the entire event was a full success.

Besides great vocals and solid low-end support, this song also features an amazing sounding psychedelic guitar.

About Jenny Dragon
Fronted by two female singers, Sarah Jane Goldstein and Jodi Jean Amble, Jenny Dragon is lyrically driven and vintage inspired. Influences range from jazz, to country, to pop, to the sounds of early America. We find our inspiration from our collective history and from our Chicago environment. Our songs include the sounds of guitar, piano, violin, mandolin, ukulele, bass, drums, and when Mama feels frisky, a squeeze box. But the strength and unique quality of our sound lies in the uncanny blend and harmony of two, female voices.
Jenny Dragon is the result of two old friends coming together to create great, new music. While our members have been hard at work with projects including The Jodi Jean Band, The Del Moroccos, Derek Nelson & The Musicians, Brian Sharpe & The Associates, Jodi Jean & The Revenuers, Bossa Saravah, Square the Circle, and other acts/projects as they inevitably come, Jenny Dragon is a distinct combination of our musical passions, influences, and experiences. We hope to share this music with you!
