“Music lit me up as a kid and I was like ‘oh this is mine.’ I knew this was my thing when I was like 6 or 8.” – Jenny O
Singer-songwriter Jenny O joins Rhett from Los Angeles to talk about her upcoming record, her songwriting process, and the moment she realized her musical power. Jenny and Rhett talk about the importance of taking time when finalizing lyrics, the very real demand for more female musicians, and the complicated variables of social interaction.
Jenny O is a multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter from Long Island, NY best known for her captivating studio records and her honest and poignant songwriting. She’s toured with all-time great songwriters like Ben Harper, Leon Russell, and Father John Misty, and her music has appeared in commercials for world-renowned brands including Coca-Cola, Toyota, and Subaru. Jenny is in the process of completing her fourth full-length album, which she and Rhett discuss in the episode.
