Jennifer Hanson Music

It’s not your mic…..

Susan’s birthday today. If you met her you know what an amazing person she was and how the world is less without her.

My sister. My friend. She left us early this morning. Our world will never be the same.

Here’s my new video and song, Howard Jones beautiful and timeless “No One is to Blame, it was so fun to make! Lots of beautiful people are involved in this project- Murray Pulver who played guitar and produced and arranged it, Gilles Fournier, Daniel Roy, Marc Arnold, Paul Yee at Stereobus, Al Hunnie, my daughter Camilla on cello, Steve Bell for the use of his studio, Jay Johnson for making the video, and the friends who listen and share!

No One is to Blame Jennifer Hanson

Hey northern friends! I’m going to be yelling at people with a really good group of guys (the Johnny’s Antisocial Band) which is at the Trout Festival Fish Fry in Flin Flon on June 24th at the Community Hall. I think we start around 9:30….We’ve got some great party tunes, and I’ve really been working on my dance moves!

Hey kids we have a video coming out soon! Nothing says sumner fun like a depressing love song! Stay tuned and I’ll let you know as soon as I figure out what I’m doing!

Hey friends! Jenerator is playing at the South Beach Casino tonight from 8-11. This is one of our few public shows since my new stint as a cook on a ship so come on out and I’ll sing some songs and yell out recipes!

Hey friends! I sent a cheque today to the charity and want to thank you all for donating and showing up to our Ukraine fundraiser. We raised a few hundred more in T-shirt sales and I used that to help a few new Ukrainian families with moving and expenses. Thanks again to each and every one of you!

Can’t wait for this! Get your tix before they’re gone!

Everyday….

Happy Earth Day! It’s been a week since our fundraiser for Ukraine and it was such a good time! I’m going to keep it open for a bit longer as there are some folks who are still wanting to donate. WE STILL HAVE TSHIRTS! They’e $25 each and 2 for $40, I know that’s expensive but I’m tryna raise money here. Also they have an excellent insult to Putin on the back of the shirt! You can message me if you still want to donate. The funds will go to Canada Congress for Ukraine. It’s an excellent charity and the money will go directly to people on the ground for food, shelter etc. There are so many people to thank…..

Hey Winnipeg friends, it’s a busy week, but if you have a chance, join me at this free concert tomorrow at noon. My daughter will be playing cello!

Well- I dunno how anyone else does their taxes but I just found ten bucks so I’m ahead of the game.

Hey Winnipeg friends, we’re super excited to announce a few more guests at our Ukraine fundraiser, Chris Burke-Gaffney and Jeff Neill will be joining us on April 15 and we’re honoured to be able to hang with them and play some music! There are only a few tickets left at the A so get over there!

Here we go again! We have some amazing guests this year! So far we have Marco Castillo, Mike Polanski and a few more that don’t know they’re performing! If you can’t be here on the 15th, consider buying a support ticket which will go in the raffle for a fabulous prize I haven’t picked yet! A lot of exclamations points!

Well, happy third anniversary of all of us learning to do stuff because we had no other stuff to do.

Hey folks, the tickets for our Ukraine Fundraiser on April 15th are available at The Assiniboine Gordon Hotel, 1975 Portage Ave. AT the front desk, and I have social tix and support tix that you can request and etransfer me.
You’re gonna love the special guests!

Thanks and for hosting the Handsome lads and me! What a swell time! (This is a pic of me wondering how to tell no matter how many Juno’s he has, he’ll never beat me at Scrabble, is worried how we can move on from this. Go see this joint folks, it’s great!

The Lads and I had a swell time last night! Thanks so much Jazz Winnipeg and Hotel Fort Garry for hosting us at The Club (still Broadways to me)! Zachary Rushing joined us on stage with his golden pipes and I worked on my comedy show in case Yuk Yuk’s needs a fill in. Thanks to everyone who showed up! (Pic of Gilles Fournier is when he was setting up my iPad for charts, looking concerned at my lack of tech savvy)

Hey Winnipeg, the Handsome Lads and I are happy to be performing at the opening of what I’m calling (it’s not called this) Broadways in the basement of the Fort Garry on Sunday March 5 at 7pm! Come and relive some memories! Only legal memories though,k?

Who is Bonnie Raitt? Unknown blues singer?? Are you kidding me!!

If we’ve just met and you find out about my migraines, please don’t tell me to drink more water or take magnesium. Sis, I’ve drunk the blood of an over hydrated magnesium infused shaman under a wolf moon. I’ve already thought of it.

Well, I’m back. I missed all you weirdos. Is my mental health better? Absolutely not. Did I read eleventy books? Yes I did. Were they all trash? Totally.
In other news, we will be doing our
2ND ANNUAL FUNDRAISER FOR UKRAINE!
On April 15 at the Assiniboine Gordon Hotel aka Mirrors aka The Big A. Same thing as last year, 25 bucks a ticket, lots of raffle stuff, your friendly neighbourhood Jenerator with lots of special guests who I haven’t asked yet. If you have a raffle prize you want to donate, let me or Kelly Ryback know.
If you start planning now, you can convince yourself to leave the house by mid April and it will all be fine!

So, my neighbor knocked on my door at 3AM. Are you kidding me!? Luckily, I was already up playing my trumpet.

We had to say goodbye to Phoenix yesterday. He was an enthusiastic pal and such a good boy.
