This album is nothing less than FANTASTIC !!! In my 25 + years hosting an Irish/Celtic Radio Show here in Brockton Massachusetts, I have received so many great albums but it is so rare to receive one with such great original songs, outstanding arrangements and such a great voice to deliver the songs with such feeling. I would certainly nominate this album as 'Album Of The Year'.
It's music like this that makes me want to stay on the radio after all these years. Jim Larkin, WXBR Radio
This is a thoroughly enjoyable musical voyage. It is a mixture of hauntingly beautiful songs and the spoken word.
These are not “traditional” Celtic songs (i.e., ones which have composed part of the Celtic heritage for generations), but there are strongly Celtic-themed songs. They tell stories which seem comfortingly familiar, even though they are new. They call to a part of the psyche of which we are often reluctant to acknowledge, not because we fear it, but simply because it lives in the background of our daily life.
Jenna’s voice is well suited to these songs, as is the instrumental accompaniment. They blend into a unison which calls the listener to sit down, forget about daily concerns, and simply enjoy. Enjoyment for the sake of enjoyment is a lost art in today’s world, I fear, but a few more CDs like this may help to restore it. I know that producing music is a joy for the average musician (and putting out a CD can be a major pain). I am hoping that, for Jenna, the joy outweighs the pain. I sincerely hope that she receives enough encouragement to follow this CD up with more. I know that I am eagerly awaiting future releases.
Don’t get this CD just because it has a Celtic flair; don’t get it just because I am recommending it whole-heartedly. Get it because, once you take the time to put it into your CD player, you will find yourself losing track of time and forgetting about the rude people and lousy situations you have encountered.
I haven’t had the pleasure of hearing her in a live performance, but I hope to rectify that in the future.

Influences
The ancient Celts held a deep reverence for nature and sought oneness with the natural world.
Their magical lore and traditions of storytelling are the inspiration behind these original works of meditative myth.
"Her ethereal music is inspired by Celtic lore and nature myth. She believes both nature and music are powerful healers. Fused together, her music will take you on a journey to sacred groves, standing stones and places of beauty within yourself."

I really like your music. The first time I heard Lorrena McKinnett, something about her music thouched my soul, and bought her CD right then, and I've been listening to her music ever since.
Thanks Jenna...you have an amazing voice and there is one other singer I like as well. Her name is Kellianna. Ck her out and I am sending her your site. She is amazing also.
I am opening a new office in Webster MA and would be honored to have you come here some day. It is called "Tranquil Moments-Center for Body & Balance"
