Singer/songwriter Jenn Grant was
born August 20, 1980 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. She overcame a
persistent case of stage fright throughout her teen years and did not begin
performing live regularly until the 2000s. A pair of EPs from 2005 earned her a
growing fanbase as well as the Best New Artist award at the 2006 Nova Scotia
Music Awards. Her debut LP, 2007’s Orchestra for the Moon, a collection
of pop songs that showed a folk influence, featured collaborations with
like-minded Canadian performers such as Ron Sexsmith. Her third album, 2011’s Honeymoon
Punch, was an artistic breakthrough. With the help of producer Daniel
Ledwell, Grant expanded her aural palette with keyboards and more
dance-friendly beats. Honeymoon Punch earned excellent reviews and a
nomination for Adult Alternative Album of the Year at the 2012 Juno Awards.
Grant married Ledwell, who returned as producer for her 2012 album The
Beautiful Wild, which won the 2013 East Coast Music Award for Pop Recording
of the Year. She utilized psychedelic touches and collaborated with Canadian
rapper Buck 65 as well as Sexsmith and many others on the Ledwell produced 2014
album Compostella, earning yet another Juno nomination. Grant went out
of her comfort zone for 2019’s Love, Inevitable, hiring Tucker Martine
to produce, and writing songs that obliquely address her feelings about
motherhood.
