Jeannine Hebb, an award-winning songwriter and vocalist, has been studying, performing, writing, and rocking out since she was 11.
Jeannine’s debut EP of original songs, “Too Late to Change Me”, was released in March of 2007, and received national attention and acclaim. The songs, while roughly categorized as pop/rock, borrow influence from blues, jazz, R&B and soul. Comparisons have been made to Fiona Apple, Laura Nyro, and Regina Spektor. The EP has been described as "a musical revelation for those tired of the usual tricks of the Pop trade...with a voice that's quite possibly one of the most striking in popular music" - Wildysworld.com.
As a performer, Jeannine has been seen at many a famous venue in nyc and beyond. She's served as an opening act for two-time grammy nominee, Tracy Bonham, and has sung with the likes of the legendary Greg Garing, and jazz icons Tim Ries and Ben Monder.
In her most recent musical venture, Hebb teamed up with Modern Vintage recordings at the Cutting Room studios in NYC. The result, a full length, 11-song album, will be available in early 2011. Stay tuned for details!
