Music Monday: Jenny Lewis

I know a lot of you will be made happy by the title of this post.
  I mean, how could you not love this lady?  ;)  It's no secret, I don't
typically love females in music.  I'm
not sure what it is, but it takes a pretty special, captivating woman to
win me over.  That being said, Jenny Lewis has more than won me
over.  We had the privilege of seeing her live last year, and Johnny and I 
would both rank her high in the "Live Shows to See" category.  Her vocals 
were phenomenal, her band impressively tight and entertaining, and 
her relationship with the crowd special.  Though I don't fancy 
Rilo Kiley, I do believe  her time in that band to be an 
integral part of who she has become as a musician.

Happy Monday, friends! I hope you enjoy. :)

xoxo Katie

    ummm, is it just me or does Jenny not look like she could be your sister Katie? I actually thought it was you in some of the pics as I flipped through.

    Or my vision could be slipping :p

    Oh I love Jenny Lewis, ever since I first saw her in Troop Beverly Hills. I've seen her perform twice and she is just has an amazing voice for such a petite lady. I just don't understand how you couldn't like Rilo Kiley. :(

    Good choice! Looooove Jenny! I saw her live last year too, in July and she was PHENOMENAL. And I don't know how you couldn't love Rilo Kiley after hearing More Adventurous. I'm enjoying music Mondays... Keep 'em coming!
    PS... your name is awesome. ;)
