Mt. Joy Release Amazon Original JENNY JENKINS (Alternate Version)
By: Tori Hartshorn Oct. 19, 2018
Today, "your new folk rock heroes" (Rolling Stone) Mt. Joy released an Amazon Original song "Jenny Jenkins" (Alternate Version) on Amazon Music. The new recording is a re-imagining of a song that recently cracked the Top 10 on the Triple A Radio Charts and originally appeared on the LA-via-Philadelphia band's critically-acclaimed debut album that was released earlier this year.

"We've been touring a lot and have played songs like 'Jenny' so many times that it was really refreshing to get to reimagine that track," explains frontman Matt Quinn. "We were able to jump into a really inspiring space - Seahorse Sound in downtown LA - with our producer Jon Gilbert for a day and just tried to craft a different vibe from the original. We are really happy with the way it came out, and are stoked that Amazon gave us the opportunity."
Earlier this year, Mt. Joy released their debut album via Dualtone Records and have emerged as of one 2018's great success stories. The band have amassed tens of millions of streams and reached the #1 spot on the Triple A Radio charts with the anthemic "Silver Lining." NPR Music praised the band for their "vibrant, well-crafted songs that overflow with hooks, tenderness and singalong moments." Listen to the band discuss their rise on NPR's Here & Now and watch them perform "Jenny Jenkins" on CBS This Morning's Saturday Sessions.
Amazon Music listeners can simply ask, "Alexa, play the new song by Mt. Joy" in the Amazon Music app for iOS and Android and on Alexa-enabled device. In addition to the new track, Amazon Music listeners can access hundreds of Amazon Original songs and numerous albums featuring both emerging and established artists across numerous genres, available to stream and purchase, only on Amazon Music.
