Bio
Jenny Galt Jenny Galt has a striking presence. She has a natural radiance that comes effortlessly, her genuine smile only making her appeal all the more alluring. And when you see her on stage skillfully playing the piano or guitar, you instantly know that music, and the stage, is where she belongs. If the name Jenny Galt rings a bell, it should. Among other achievements, she's a Canadian singer/songwriter known as one of fifteen finalists from the 2006 Mark Burnett television reality series Rockstar: Supernova. Each night, in front of millions of viewers, Jenny showcased for Tommy Lee (Motley Crue), Dave Navarro (Jane's Addiction), Gilby Clarke (Guns n' Roses), and Jason Newsted (Metallica) as they searched for a lead singer and front person for their new project. Rockstar Supernova exposure quickly lead to another high profile gig; touring keyboardist/rhythm guitarist/backing vocalist for Perry Farrell's new band Satellite Party. She catapulted from a successful audition straight into her first show at the venerable Coachella Festival in 2007, followed by a world tour, then appearing on both the Howard Stern Show and The Late Show with David Letterman. After the whirlwind exposure and attention from being on the #1 TV show in Canada, followed by a worldwide tour with one of rock's biggest names, Jenny felt as if something was missing. Deciding to leave it all behind and do things on her own, she embarked on her own solo project, and began the planning stages of recording her own debut solo album. When asked what caused this shift in focus, Jenny reflects on how she was empowered by the Rockstar experience, realizing that being a front person for a hard rock band isn't what she wanted out of life. She'd much rather create music that's more intimate, personal, and fulfilling. "I think that we all have an array of possibilities inside of us and finding that inner voice is one of the best, most exhilarating challenges in life," says Jenny. "Finding my own voice became my mission, my ambition, and it carried me forward." Galt has left her rock edge behind for something much subtler. She's managed to incorporate a European influence, creating a sexy, clean, electro-mood, pop sound. Sultry smooth vocals glide over subtle layered melodies, piano ballads graced with beautiful cello textures and pulsing, moody synth-pop rhythms. Her sensual voice rises above dark overtones and fluid downtempo beats, creating an intimate setting poised for a true and lasting connection with her audience. While writing and recording for her upcoming release with Berlin-based producers The Berman Brothers (Cher, Hanson, The Real McCoy), as well as Vancouver-based producers Jeff Dawson, Eric Solomon, Jay Evjen and Richard Duggan, Jenny somehow found time to work with some other well known Canadian musicians including Todd Kerns (Slash, Age Of Electric), Holly McNarland, Shaun Verreault (Wide Mouth Mason), Alan Frew (Glass Tiger), and Matthew Good. Not one to sit still, Jenny has also recently performed on two Canadian Forces military tours, one to Greece and the other to the North Pole. And in an ongoing effort to stretch her talents, she has also spent 2 years performing in theatres all across North America as "Agnetha" in the world's most popular Abba tribute band, "Bjorn Again". Never one to fear change, Jenny Galt has taken the challenge of being an independent solo artist head-on. In her exit from the Rockstar show, she promised to move beyond the "safe choices" of the past. Jenny has done just that. With her new mantra, "To Live Without Fear" not-so-subtly tattooed on her forearm as a permanent reminder, Galt has created new territory where pop, acoustic, and electronica peacefully coexist. And it suits her beautifully. Jenny Galt is indeed a one-woman army. Watch for her solo debut album to be released in 2013. http://www.jennygalt.com -
