"Jenni Johnson is on a mission to bring back the black female blues and jazz singers from the 1920s through the 1940s. Actually, Ma Rainey, Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Nina Simone, Etta James and Roberta Flack have never ceased influencing contemporary music, but the hard-working Burlington chanteuse revives them by performing their songs as they might have sounded decades ago." - Seven Days

Jenni Johnson has been described as "a renaissance woman" in the many articles written about her in the Burlington Free Press, Seven Days, Vermont Woman the Rutland Herald, as well as for newspapers across the lake in New York State. Born in NYCs Harlem Hospital and raised in the Big Apple, she now resides in Burlington, VT.

Jenni says she's still learning how to use her instrument, the vocal chords, with each performance. She has performed the song "Moonlight In Vermont" around the world in places such as Yaroslavl and Rostov in Russia, Paris, France and Montreal, Canada.
