Check out Jenny Bruce's new album "Left Of July" now available!



nUCLEArcENTURy.COM's MySpace Profile Editor!
The realm of bittersweet is the emotional playground of born and raised New York singer/songwriter Jenny Bruce. Welcoming the eternal struggle between yin and yang, Bruce battles her demons with gratitude and wistful familiarity on her 3rd independent release, "Left Of July." Always an observer with an intuitive eye, an open heart and the wisdom of a mother of two young boys, Bruce looks inward and unfolds a more personal perspective allowing her voice to carry more raw emotion than her in her previous recordings.

As a versatile and prolific singer/songwriter, Bruce's songs, written on guitar and piano, are triggered by inspiration rather than to suit a specific genre; the fertile depth of her work no doubt influenced by the dynamic and eclectic melting-pot of her Manhattan upbringing. "The amount of sensory input in NYC on a daily basis is intense, to say the least. But it has nurtured me well and I'm kind of hooked on it. Sometimes I do think I've seen it all." With effortless self-trained musicality, her sonorous alto leaves its distinctive fingerprint on everything she sings, often drawing comparisons to Mary Chapin Carpenter or Annie Lennox. Fellow singer/songwriters and musicians are often attracted to Bruce's economical, literate writing style and original arrangements reminiscent of artists like Jonatha Brooke and Shawn Colvin.

Few independent artists have managed to attain the level of exposure Bruce has achieved since the release of her first album in 1997. Her work has been recognized with numerous songwriting awards including first place in the Billboard songwriting contest while her recordings can be heard in multiple network TV shows as well as in several acclaimed independent films. A 1999 Lilith Fair Talent Search finalist, she garnered attention from major music industry publications for her work, including Billboard Magazine. "Home" from her 2001 release, "Soul On Fire" was included as the only track from an "unsigned" artist on a popular Martha Stewart compilation CD featuring Alison Krauss, Barenaked Ladies, Lucinda Williams and other well known artists. Over the years, Bruce has shared the stage with Sophie B. Hawkins, The Nields, Toby Lightman, Richard Julian, Vanessa Carlton, Gavin DeGraw, Livingston Taylor, Lucy Woodward, Joe Jackson and others.

Music Connection calls Bruce's work "Intelligent" and "full of pathos and gentle ironies." The MA Springfield Union says, "A lot of women picked up guitars to join the Lilith trend, but Bruce is the real thing." Bruce is currently working on her 3rd studio album to be released in 2004. In putting this record together, she enlisted her drummer and multi-instrumentalist/Producer, Ethan Eubanks (David Mead, Redtime, Brad Jones of Crash Test Dummies) to help capture the band sound she was seeking. Her band is mostly comprised of Ethan Eubanks, Whynot Jansveld (David Mead, Crash Test Dummies), Ben Butler (Dar Williams, Jane Siberry, Lucy Woodward).

Jenny has always found time within her often frantic schedule to contribute her talents to charitable organizations and events. She has donated her recordings to compilation CDs for Children's International, The Garland Appeal for Breast Cancer and the Council for the Prevention of Child Abuse. Last Summer she recorded a song for Hospital Assistance and was flown to France to sing, in French, a song written for the 25th anniversary of Handicap International.

After co-founding the successful New York artist collective Urbanmuse NYC with artist Jo Davidson, Bruce was invited by the prestigious ICM booking agency to be part of the all women's NYC Sirens Tour. The Sirens include artists Amy Fairchild and Mairead and have performed at several large music festivals and performing art centers. Although Bruce will be a new mother this Summer, she plans on touring part of next year to support her new album due out this Fall. Bruce writes, "Life is a song and I'm gonna sing it."

Songwriting Awards & Honors include: Billboard Song Contest Great American Songwriting Contest John Lennon Songwriting Contest Just Plain Folks Song Contest Unisong Songwriting Contest USA Songwriting Contest Windrift Songwriting Contest

"Jenny's Soul: New York-rooted rock ingenue Jenny Bruce is building a cult following with her Smokejumper CD, Soul On Fire. Produced by Kevin Bents, the set showcases the artist's broad style, which has been drawing comparisons to Annie Lennox and Shawn Colvin, among others. "It's fun to be viewed is such eclectic terms," Bruce says. "I've always preferred being versatile over doing the same song again and again." - Billboard Magazine 10/27

"New York's Jenny Bruce has just released her second CD independently, but already she's had much success... Hers is an intelligent record full of pathos and gentle ironies; sort of like Paula Cole, but not nearly as whiny. This is Triple A as good as it gets, which means it's right on the verge of being pop." - Music Connection 10/22-11/4

Hello
there,
now this one should fit.... Thanks again for your add.... They still
may mess up the way it was written, but you should still be able to
enjoy the reality of it anyhow.... Many smiles to you always, ~Nick~ :)




=============================================================



"Love's long and lonely line"

    
I look at all your faces trying to hide so many tears, unable to
understand, what has happened to all of the years. Thinking about our
yesterdays when our dreams were still in sight, now we hide within our
memories while alone we say good night. Then in the morning you wake up
by yourself just to open up your eyes and find, it's just another day
you'll be waiting, in love's long and lonely
line.                                               

     You
see the sadness as it's all around you, just needing a smile from
someone that is kind, this isn't the way it was suppose to be, nor what
you were hoping through time to find. So you stand there in life's
pouring rain, wishing the clouds would just wash away all of this pain,
knowing if you don't soon find true love, you'll end up going insane.
You look through all of the smiles while hoping to find a sign, so
maybe these clouds will go away, and the sun will have a place to
shine.                                                  

    
Staying home alone, our spirits cry to be set free, wanting to feel
true love again, the kind that was meant to
be….                                              

                                    ~Nick Nichols~

I just finished listening to your music. You play with such feeling and incredible dynamics.
While I was listening, I seemed to have drifted off to a place of tranquility and peace.
Thanks for gracing me with a wonderful morning, where I could actually escape to another world for a while.
