Jenks: News

Woah, what a crazy last few months it has been!  I've been hard at work doing lots of jazz!  Let's get to some awesome news!

A new album is in the works!  New songs are being written, and a couple of them are totally finished.  In fact, the new single is available on iTunes!  The song is called "Do The Caveman" and it totally rocks!  It's a dance-along song with specific actions, and it's super rad.  I've been performing it at our recent shows and it's been a huge hit!  Check it out on iTunes:  http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/do-the-caveman-single/id504914389

In February I decided it was about time I write a new song for my sweet wife Brooke.  You can listen to the entire song for free right here!

In other news, Annie and I have started playing wedding receptions!  We played some live songs for our younger brother's reception, and we booked a couple more receptions shortly after.  Would you like to see us performing a song for grown-ups?  You would?  Well then, check out the video!

This summer promises to bring lots of fun shows and some rockin' new music!  We also have a few videos in development, so stay tuned, because you're not going to want to miss a thing!  Rock on amigos!!!

Well it's been an awesome summer full of music, sunshine, and juggling, and now it's time for some Jenks news!

Hey guess what!  We've created a brand new music video for the song "First Time at the Zoo!"  Check it out right here on our website (click on the Videos link above), or watch it on YouTube: http://youtu.be/4QAP18dWzdA.  Please share it will all your friends!

We've also been hard at work building our recording studio at Corey's home.  It looks amazing, and we have one last piece of equipment to get and then it will be perfect!  Pictures to come...pinky promise!
 
Once the studio is complete we've got some new tunes to record.  The subject......dinosaurs!  Maybe we'll have to post a video of Corey doing his raptor impression...it's pretty realistic.
 
Remember to give us a call when you're looking for some amazing entertainment. Our songs keep getting better and Corey's fire juggling keeps getting scarier!
