biography
"This is either the most sophisticated simple music or the simplest sophisticated music I've ever heard."
That comment, heard after a Jeni & Billy performance, sums up the appeal of the duo's 'New Old Music.' With exquisitely spare accompaniment and performances that are never rushed, Jeni & Billy's harmonies harken to a lost time and reverberate with a rare honesty, as they inhabit the lives of miners, preachers, ramblers, lovers, and plain-living folks. Their music is quiet enough to be heard and just loud enough to be unforgettable.
Sharing the duties of songwriting, arranging, and performing, Jeni Hankins & Billy Kemp bring to the work very distinct musical backgrounds that draw from the deep well of Appalachian roots music. They continue the country tradition of the sweetheart duo, winning hearts with their genuine presence on stage and their true to life recordings, while bearing witness to the simple grace of plain folks.
