Jenny Don't And The Spurs over for a few Benelux shows in July

Jenny Don’t And The Spurs have maintained a relentless schedule of recording and touring ever since their inception a decade ago. Now, after almost 500 live shows in a dozen countries, and with three albums and a slew of singles to their name, they have just about warmed up. What is the sound that Jenny Don’t and the Spurs make?  There’s an unmistakable Western themes twang to it.  There’s some garage rock attitude and rawness.  And it is exuberant, this is not a band of shrinking violets or heartbroken bedroom folk – nope, not this Oregon based bunch of desperados.

Founded by Jenny Don’t (vocals/rhythm guitar, ex-Don't) and Kelly Halliburton (bass, ex-Pierced Arrows, P.R.O.B.L.E.M.S.), who had been playing in the aforementioned acoustic and punk bands and felt the need to switch gears up/down, it wasn’t long before they were rehearsing a set of seminal standards by the likes of Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Ernest Tubb and Hank Williams Sr., as well as a sprinkling of original songs. Their friend Sam Henry (ex-Wipers, The Rats, Napalm Beach) soon joined them on drums, and this remained the core trio for almost five years, augmented by guest guitarists.
