Product DescriptionJenny Goodspeed's debut CD Under the Ash Tree is a sparkling fusion of folk, pop, Americana, and jazz drawing on influences from 70's era singer/songwriters like Joni Mitchell, Bruce Cockburn, and Laura Nyro. Well-crafted lyrics, exquisite vocals, and heart-breaking melodies abound as Goodspeed explores the intricacies of love and longing, all definitively steeped in her beloved New England landscape. Co-produced and engineered by Mark Thayer at Signature Sounds Studio in Pomfret, CT, an impressive group of musicians back her including Jim Henry (Tracy Grammar, Mark Erelli) on acoustic guitar, Richard Gates (Patty Larkin, Suzanne Vega) on electric bass, Duke Levine (Mary Chapin-Carpenter, Jonatha Brooke) on electric guitar and mandolin, and Beth Amsel (Voices on the Verge) on harmony vocals.
