Jenny & Jackie Release Their First Album at Outer Limits Lounge Tonight!

Third Wave Music is a port in a storm for Detroit's musical community. This hip shop sells new and used instruments and is the only place in the area where you can grab a set of strings before you play a set in the city. The store is also owned and operated by two of Detroit's coolest musicians, Jenny and Jeff.

Individually, both of these people have made a name for themselves. Jenny spent years preforming as Illymack and turning up karaoke bars around town, and Jeff was a member of the bands Gardens and Genders. But, after a chance meeting a few years ago, they found themselves bandless and in love. So, they decided to collaborate to make some beautiful music together.

Their new project goes by the name Jenny & Jackie. Some of the music that they created was written before they met, but most of it was written during the first few years while they were falling in love. The album was recorded over a two year period and a lot of great people worked on it, including Fred Thomas (who recorded the album), Chris Koltay of High Bias Studio (who mixed the album), and Warren Defever (who mastered the final cut). You can hear the first few tracks here or you can head out to Hamtramck for the duo's album release party tonight!

Jenny & Jackie will be releasing their first record Summer at the Outer Limits Lounge tonight August 23rd, 2018. DJ Terri Whodat and DJ Ladylike will be spinning some tunes throughout the night and Career Club and 2000Blue will be opening up the show. Tickets to attend the event are $5 at the door and the music starts at 9 p.m. The new 12" record will be available for purchase at the show. Come celebrate love with the band tonight!
