Violinist Jenny Scheinman's upcoming record Mischief & Mayhem is fantastic. Here's a little taste‚ the opening track "A Ride with Polly Jean."
Jenny Scheinman -- "A Ride with Polly Jean"Yeah‚ they don't waste any time getting into it -- they're immediately in a dream-like‚ beautiful space together. And it makes sense considering the musicians in Jenny's band: guitarist Nels Cline‚ bassist Todd Sickafoose and drummer Jim Black -- an incredibly talented group. But it's all about the chemistry‚ and this group has it. "A Ride with Polly Jean" sets the tone for the rest of the record -- each one of Jenny's compositions taking you on an interesting ride.
Mischief & Mayhem is out March 6th and Jenny and her band will appear at Le Poisson Rouge on February 20‚ 2012 for their NYC CD release party.
