“This is tough mean and sexy. And it’s blues as it should be...hot, sensitive and passionate.” Johan Kronquist Östgötacorrespondenten
Little Jenny and the Blue Beans play blues influenced music from well known numbers as well as their original songs. The band was formed in 1997 as Sweden’s only all woman blues band with Little Jenny playing harp, guitar and on vocals. The Blue Beans are Lotta Partapuoli on guitar, Justina Lakin on drums and Mia Kempff on bass and vocals.
The band plays a suggestive blues-rock mix. Harmonica and guitar duels are common, interspersed with refreshing drum solos when least expected. The majority of the songs are originals and their philosophy is that they are best experienced live.
Their career has seen them feature at many of the major European festivals including: Belgium Rn’B Festival, Peer; Copenhagen Blues Festival, Denmark; Åmåls Bluesfestival, Sweden and the Lahti Blues Festival, Finland. Little Jenny herself has been the recipient of two of the top Swedish blues awards: the Jan Rosenqvist award in 1998 and the Åmal blues festival award in 2001.
