Jenn Franklin's music has been heard on MTV's "Real World," on over 175 college radio stations, and in national publications like Performing Songwriter magazine who says, "a bold voice that asserts instant authority...Franklin's confident delivery ensures an indelible impression." She has also showcased at several music conferences including South By Southwest, Midpoint Musicfest, International Folk Alliance, Diversafest, Midwest Music Summit, and Nashville's 2NMC.
Franklin's musical beginnings were in rural Kansas, where she began singing in rock bands at age twelve, wowing crowds by covering such artists as Heart, Janis Joplin, and Aretha Franklin. All the while, she was writing powerful pop-rock songs on piano but felt too shy to share them with her band. After her college graduation at Wichita State University, she moved to Nashville, where she met recent Berklee Music graduate, Peter Overton. The two collaborated to record a six-song debut EP, "Errors & Admissions." The project was well received and helped to launch some national exposure for Franklin's music, landing two song placements on an MTV show, as well as national college radio airplay.
Franklin then met artist/producer, Jim Reilley, founding member of The New Dylans and a staff writer at Curb Music Publishing. Reilley had seen Jenn perform live and approached her about making a full-length album together, calling in the talents of top-notch musicians like Ken Coomer (formerly of Wilco), Charlie Chadwick (Shelby Lynne, Steve Earl), and Bryn Davies (Patty Griffin). The upcoming album titled, "Girl Invisible," shows Franklin to be a kindred songstress to artists like Sarah McLachlan, Tori Amos, and Sara Barielles, but with a voice undeniably all her own.

I can't wait to see the video of your performance in NYC at The Bitter End. I transferred the photos of the show from my phone to my laptop. Now I just have to get around to sending them to you. There is a couple dozen I think so it will take some time to upload them. That's the sucky part. LOL!
Hi stopping by to say Hi and invite you to a listen of my new minute long version of White Christmas.Thank you for your support and the Best To you always. tim
I will! Whenever you do feel like coming to Iowa... my stepdad could probably get you a show at People's Court in downtown Des Moines. He builds drums for bands and so he knows people. :]
The world serves us what it considers important, urgent, vital It prefers speed Effectiveness Results Ostentation Noise The illusion of certainty I wish for you to celebrate what serves no purpose I wish you beauty I wish for you to string pearls I wish for you to dream with your feet dangling in a pretty brook I wish for you to listen to birdsong I wish for you to lie down in a broad, poppy-strewn meadow I wish for you to have a small bike in your head I wish for you to experience love at first sight I wish for you " to carry coals to Newcastle" I wish for you to seek beauty Within yourself For yourself I wish for you only what is free Gracious Grace
I am going to Belmont for business. I am actually supposed to be headed to Tennessee next month. You will have to tell me how that goes. I still think you should come to Iowa for a performance :]].
Today I would like to let you know about two print magazines in Germany I'm writing for.
"Living Line Dance", reporting about line dance and country music, and "Folk Magazine", reporting about folk and country music. The magazines are high respected in Europe. They offer you a good chance to publicize yourself in Europe and Germany.
For more information, please contact me at MySpace or send email to Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de with the headline "Advertise at Living Line Dance and Folk Magazine".
Thanks again for being on the bill with us last week. You have great songs and an amazing voice. I'd love to do some shows together soon, maybe even a tour/mini-tour if you'd be interested. Definitely stay in touch if this is something that you would want to look into. Thanks again!
Hey! I was just going to see how you were and how everything is going down in Tennessee. I am actually going to go to college at Belmont next fall, so maybe we can catch up :]]].
