The Jinny Joes are a Montreal-based folk band, made up of Rebecca Egan (vox), Joanna DeGrâce (vox), and Alain Gaudet (guitarist & multi-instrumentalist). Their appeal lies entirely in the intimate revelations that are strung into each track. With continuous loops of melody, confession, and introspection, the composition connects with the listener on many levels. And there’s a grandeur in that. The Jinny Joe’s latest single is ‘Will You Try?’. Dressed merely in glinting guitar acoustics, the soundscape is made bigger with Joanna’s vocal lush. The protagonist is placed in a room singing musingly about the world entering through the window.
And the song is arranged to recreate this scene sonically. With the rounded sopranos filling up the air with a stream of consciousness, the acoustics file into them with an organic rhythm, texturizing and dimensionalising the flow. And as we get into the song, the instrumentals become bolder and more complex. The vocals meet the dynamism of melodies to form an uplifting cohesion. Listeners of Joni Mitchell, Alanis Morissette, and Nick Drake are sure to enjoy the mellow folk corner of The Jinny Joes.
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
