FROM OVERPLAY 
With the romance of her radio and records in tow, this daughter of an Infantry Officer and musical mother found a way to express herself in spite of the constant uprooting. In turn, at an early age she found her own roots in those old 45s, LPs and 8-Trax. And now, in the busy shadows of Manhattan, JENNIE WALKER and her collaborator (noted New York producer, Tommy Faragher) set to create these new sensual, symphonic songs of fascination and light.
Amidst a high-energy production schedule for her upcoming CD in 2006, Jennie and Tommy, continue to perform at intimate venues in Soho, Noho and the East Village in NYC.
Accompanied by seasoned players, Jennie's soothing, cobalt blue vocals and liquid gold delivery resonate scrupulous stories of romantic power and resolution.
The intrigue begins.

"Did You Notice Me" Wins 5th Place in Overplay Competition
"Did You Notice Me" won 5th Place in the Overplay Play & Rate Competition. The Song was described this way:
"I would have given you all the love I had" whispers Jennie on a simple, elegant and stately Beatley composition. Crisp piano and sad strings turn this into something eminently classy. Like Gary Barlow with no Y chromosome and more charisma.

JENNIE REVIEWED IN MUSIC CONNECTION MAGAZINE
Jennie Walker received her first music review from Music Connection Magazine, based in Los Angeles, California.
"NY-based Jennie Walker, with producer Tommy Faragher, has mounted a CD that maintains a consistently smooth, adult groove throughout. The poignant "Your Father Your Mother" is set to a cello and funky wah guitar, which combine surprisingly well. The formula continues on "Subway Glass," which allows Walker to display the soulfulness in her voice. The ballad "Simon," conversely, eschews the funk for an orchestral approach that sounds perfect for musical theatre."

"BLACK HAT" WINS OVERPLAY SONG COMPETITION
"Black Hat" has won the Overplay Play & Rate Competition. The song, co-written and produced by Tommy Faragher, was described this way:
"Dreamy synths and the most rock ´n´ roll cello moves since "Mr Blue Sky" lend plenty of brooding atmos to Jennie´s moody tale. Lush, elegant, catchy and packed with more drama than the Hollyoaks omnibus."

"Your Father Your Mother" was described as follows by the judges:
"Wah-wah, Rhodes piano and Temptations strings concoct a heady blend of fluid funk to accommodate a vocal that leans more towards husky charisma than raw soul power. Lots of nice "nah-nah-nahs" in there too."
