Mr. Fulks is more than a songwriter. He's a
gifted guitarist who has taught for years at the
Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago, he's a
soulful singer with an expressive honky-tonk
tenor, and he's a natural performer. It rings
true when he says he's only truly comfortable
when he's onstage or when he's totally alone.
But what really sets him apart is his
songwriting, which is one part artful country,
one part artful sendup of country and one part a
little of everything else.
Jenny Scheinman is a singer, violin player, composer and
arranger. She grew up in the sticks playing folk music
with her family, went on to study at Oberlin
Conservatory, and has been performing as a
violinist/fiddler since she was a teenager. She has
taken the #1 Rising Star Violinist title in the Downbeat
Magazine Critics Poll and has been listed as one of
their Top Ten Overall Violinists for the last five
years. In addition, she has garnered numerous
high-profile arranging credits with artists such as
Lucinda Williams, Bono, Lou Reed and Sean Lennon, and
has toured and recorded with Bill Frisell, Norah Jones,
Madeleine Peyroux, Nels Cline, Vinicius Cantuaria,
Jimmie Dale Gilmore, and Mark Ribot.
She has four releases of original music under her belt,
the last of which, 12 Songs, was named by the New York
Times (Ben Ratliff) as one of the Top Ten Albums of
2005. She will be releasing her next two on May 27, 2008
on Koch. The eponymous Jenny Scheinman, produced by Tony
Scherr, is her debut recording as a singer and it
focuses on the American folk/country/rock music of her
childhood. Crossing The Field is her fifth instrumental
release and features Bill Frisell, Jason Moran, Ron
Miles, Doug Weiselman, Tim Luntzel and Kenny Wollesen
(who also appear on Jenny Scheinman), plus a string
orchestra led by Eyvind Kang and Brooklyn Rider.
