#NEWMUSIC: JILL HENNESSY – “I DO”

Many of us know Edmonton-born Actress Jill Hennessy for her brilliant work on series like LUCK, CROSSING JORDAN and LAW & ORDER, but many forget that she actually is a bona fide musician.  After penning a heart-felt collection of tunes between 2011-2012,  Hennessy (who grew-up in nine Canadian cities), went into the studio to bring to life her deeply-personal collection of songs inspired by marriage, familial love and loss.

Hennessy separates her talents into separate boxes and this new Disc continues her life journey at this stage in her life, whereas her debut GHOST IN MY HEAD, was inspired much by her childhood.

Her folk-rock sensibilities are front and center on her first album in six years, I DO and many will be surprised by the polished product and her phenomenal voice which left a crowd at Adelaide Hall wowed last weekend here in Toronto.

The 11-track disc distributed by Fontana North and Universal Music Canada features tracks:

1.       Marsha G
2.       Digging my own Grave
3.       Aimee
4.       Something’s Comin’
5.       Edmonton
6.       Save Me
7.       Heaven
8.       I Do
9.       Real
10.   Previous One
11.   Cross the River
