Jenny Don't & the Spurs

JENNY DON’T AND THE SPURS
Based in Portland, Oregon in the US Northwest, Jenny Don’t and the Spurs have spent over a decade building a reputation as hardworking and musically-driven stalwarts of the Country Western scene. Despite facing challenges-singer Jenny had vocal surgery in 2019 and drummer Sam Henry was lost to cancer in 2022-they have remained resilient and fully committed to their musical journey. With a fierce DIY ethos, they have independently released the majority of their output (three albums, ten singles) on their own label, cultivating a vast international following via extensive tours across Europe and Australia/New Zealand, as well as performances in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Mexico. The group most recently attracted attention with their album ‘Fire On The Ridge’, a collaboration with the Fluff and Gravy label that topped the Alt Country charts and earned excellent reviews in the UK, where they toured in 2023. The year also saw them win the coveted ‘Outlaw Group of the Year’ award at Dale Watson's Ameripolitan Award Ceremony held in Memphis, plus they joined Charley Crockett for multiple dates on his US tour.

“Lee Hazlewood and Duane Eddy’s spirits are surely swirling all over this astonishingly great album that should send them to the top of the scene 9/10”VIVE LE ROCK“

There are all sorts of stylistic goodies bubbling up to keep your ears on high alert. Sonically and aesthetically, it provides a nice dip in the bygone C&W timestream that works as well today as it did back then ”NO DEPRESSION“

They are doing more than most to drag country music away from the overblown arena acts and take it back to the dive bars where it belongs 4.5/5 ”VINTAGE ROCK
