Bio “Cami” Jenni Alpert
About: Swingin a little peace in your day for those experiencing or choosing homelessness through mealtime concerts with Jenni Alpert (birth name Cami): Singer, songwriter, guitarist, pianist was born in Los Angeles, CA and adopted out of the foster care system at the age of four. She started to sing and play piano while in various foster homes and with the encouragement and support of her adoptive family she learned to play the guitar as well and began writing and recording songs early. Her emotionally driven songs weave a unique web of eclectic Soul-Americana Pop. With her honest rich songwriting and soothing musical melodies, songstress Jenni Alpert’s haunting sultry voice has gained the respect of fans and music tastemakers worldwide. As familiar with jazz and Americana as she is pop, Alpert graduated from UCLA in the Ethnomusicology Department after completing a four-year jazz program headed by Kenny Burrell. No stranger to the recording studio, Alpert has released 8 albums and has independently toured over 14 countries with regularity.
Upon searching for, finding, and reuniting with her biological father who was homeless, addicted, and running from the law at the time, yet a musician just like her, upon their unexpected extraordinary connection and feats, a film team decided to make a short documentary entitled Homeless: the Soundtrack directed by Irene Taylor about the early stages of their story that unfold the journey of their biological reunion. The film captures the unique bond they share as she became his advocate and shadow guiding him out of the legal system for the first time in his life since he was nine, motivating him to permanently choose to get off of drugs and living a life of the streets, eventually adopting him into her life and home. Symbiotically, Don gave her opportunities to love and heal in the consistent giving and receiving he welcomed from and reciprocated with his daughter. Through creative solution solving, experiential mirroring, and volunteering regularly with purpose using using music as the medium and connector, Don ultimately shifted his focus from a self identified vagrant to a self esteemed volunteer. The two traveled and performed together to share their biological reunion adventures and creative approaches in partnership towards transformation with story and song at various venues and shelters alongside supporting the short documentary and self penned memoir Home is Where the Heart is an Adoption and Biological Reunion Story as a duo under the name Cami and Don, The Biological Duo until his passing.
Currently, Jenni continues to join a range of nonprofits and support organizations that focus on homelessness, foster care, adoption, reunions, and the Adoption Constellation as keynote speaker, performer, and program developer in support of education, transformation, and healing and is the founder of a new non profit Fine Arts Revolution that provides creative music arts wellness programs and services to those experiencing homelessness and those in transition in her birth father Don’s honor.

In Don’s honor good friend of mine who he himself has been unhoused for many years, decided to head down to the streets of Skid Row where Don occasionally frequented himself living on the streets most of his own life, to share sentiment of peace in song for our unhoused community with Simple Mood. Let us create a more peaceful now to facilitate a better tomorrow
