Jenni Reid Music

Jenni Reid is a twenty-two year old musician from Jacksonville, FL who has loved music since a young age, watching Elvis movies and putting on concerts in her back yard very frequently as a child. Jenni started to take her career seriously when she graduated high school in 2009 by teaching herself to play guitar and write lyrics to some of her most popular tunes today. She is strongly influenced by classic artist such as Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash, crediting them for much of her style. She has begun playing shows around Florida opening for a number of notable artist such as Tyler Hilton, Dion Roy and Ryan Cabrera. Jenni even appeared on Hilton's hit CW TV show One Tree Hill in its final season in 2012. Another shining moment with Hilton happened at his concert in Gainesville, FL when he invited Jenni on stage with him later in his set to sing one of his hit songs "When The Stars Go Blue" originally by Ryan Adams. Hilton and tour mate Roy invited Jenni to come north to play multiple shows with them on their tour, but due to schedules that opportunity had to be turned down. At twenty-two years old she displays not only raw talent but soul not usually found in such a young musician. The foundation of her music is based on emotion and metaphors, writing all her lyrics and music herself. Jenni has released one full CD, Stories To Tell and a Holiday themed EP, The Christmas EP featuring other great Jacksonville musicians. While Jenni's career has just in some ways begun it's not hard to see how successful she has been already. Her debut album 'Stories To Tell' is out now on iTunes and Jenni's online store.
