Formed during the spring of
2002, this foursome has been banging out Paisty-flavored modern rock that has been
enthusiastically received by audiences throughout the Midwest and the country.
As quoted by the Emergenza
Festival, “Paisty Jenny delivers arena rock with a modern rock edge.”
Primary songwriter Gregg
Lee’s vocals contain a very unique and marketable timbre without being over-produced.
He punches out a clean yet emotional growl, and a sometimes factious look at life.
The band has shared the stage
with dozens of national acts including classics like Vince Neil; Bret Michaels; and Skid
Row, plus modern rockers like 3 Doors Down, Breaking Benjamin and Buckcherry.
According to Derric Miller at
Hardrock Haven, “Paisty Jenny is a band we firmly believe needs to be heard. Paisty
Jenny is a stage machine. Lead singer and guitarist Gregg Lee is the consummate showman,
almost like he walked off the Sunset Strip instead of Huskerland. Their latest work
Spilling Mercury is a CD loaded with should-be hits, strong musicianship, top-shelf
vocals, but most importantly, stellar songwriting."
Paisty Jenny’s (PJ) debut
EP “DETOURS” was released September 2004 and the first 1,000 copies SOLD OUT
astonishly fast.
Next up,
"DETOURS-RED", completed the package with 3 additional tracks and two videos.
One track, "Monday Monday" was produced at the request of CBS television and
bangs out a salute to the Momas and Papas 1967 original. The disc contains the
show-stopper "Primadonna" while the video features the popular adult internet
star Melissa Midwest.
The band released their third
work “Spilling Mercury” in March of 2009, a 16-song CD and their best effort to
date featuring the anthem “Bigger Man”, a tribute to those lost in the Von Maur
shootings that took place in Omaha in December 2007.
Paisty Jenny was selected among
300 regional bands to headline the main stage at the Arrowhead Fan Fest, in Kansas City,
MO and a poll on the WB Network website in Des Moines, IA voted Paisty Jenny as the
favorite band at the WATERSTOCK Rock Festival with 38% of the vote. Paisty Jenny also had
the opportunity to open the Rock Never Stops tour at Pershing Center in Lincoln, Nebraska.
Some
bands PJ has shared the stage with, some muliple times include: Bret Michaels (2); Brian
Howe; Breaking Benjamin;
Buckcherry;
Cinderella;
Def Leppard; Firehouse (9); Foghat; Foreigner; Great White (3); Jackyl (3); Kory and the Fireflies; LA Guns (6); Loverboy;
Ratt; Skid Row (6); Slaughter (3); Stephen Pearcy; Styx; Tesla; 3 Doors Down;
