So fortunate to get to see her play live in Hawick, Scotland a couple of weeks ago. Talk about an amazing talent!! I could listen to her sing and play all night. And she’s so nice!
You have music oozing from every pore in your body. This was a fantastic performance. Congratulations. I can see how many hours you have spent honing your craft. Loved it!
Congrats Jenny. You have created a great sounding guitar. Love your take of this great song. You have a great playing feel and an awesome voice. Hope to catch you live some time.
Saw you tonight at Basement in SYD Jen and bought both CD's. Totally blown away thanks.. Still workin' on the Irish accent.. ;-) Maybe you remember what I said about Vicki Thorn.. this video validates that without a doubt. Thanks..
First off - Holy crap Jenny! That was incredible!! - super slick playing, performance and guitar.. Undoubtedly the best Ive heard :). Secondly, I was hoping you might be able to point me in the right direction to any (!) decent tabs for this song. I've tried in so many places and had no luck. Don't think I'd be able to match your licks in the middle mind! Thanks so much and keep up the awesome work.
Hah! Thanks! That's awesome. Very kind words. Tabs for the song? Alas, no. I just kinda figured it out by ear, but I don't think I play it exactly the same. I was contemplating doing a basic "how to" video. It dances around Aminor, C, and G.
+Jenny Biddle hey! Thanks for the reply, nice to hear from you. Ahh that's a shame, however it did feel like a long shot ;).. Amazing you've created that just from ear! Well, if you were still contemplating the 'how to' video, you'd be safe in the knowledge that 1 person would view it, and love it! Actually I'm certain a few friends would too. But anyways, not meant to sound request! :) keep up the awesome work Best!
Hey Jenny, Wicked cover and some great tone. I make instruments as a bit of a hobby (slide guitar, stomp boxes, cajons, amps etc) and would love to tackle an acoustic guitar. Do Thomas Lloyd give the opportunity to anyone to do this (with the right amount of $$) or are you just a very special person?
+Andrew Jackman Hahah. Awesome. Sorry for the delay getting back to you - only a year later. Did you ever get lessons with Thomas Lloyd Guitars? Amazing experience. I highly recommend it. You could probably exchange guitar making tips too if you're a maker yourself.
Hey, thanks! I am contemplating doing a video. I don't think I play it exactly the same as the Waifs, but the general vibe. :) I'll try and get a "how to video" up
That's an even more impressive performance because you're using a Jim Dunlop harp rack and you NAIL it!. I absolutely can't stand mine and find it impossible to play accurately or with aggression. I need a rack thats anchored solidly on my chest/shoulders. Hats off to you young lady. And your guitar is tres noice! If you're ever on the Sunshine Coast I'll have to corner you for some harp lessons. BTW, are you using a 'D'?
+Muzz Litebeer Sorry for the delay getting back to you - only a year later. How good are those harmonica braces! The others are like dental contraptions. Hahaha. This is much more discrete. Thanks for your kind words :) Indeed I'm using a D harmonica. Sunshine coast, ey. :) Awesome. I haven't been up there for a couple years now.
+Alec MacIsaac It's in the Key of D. There's a good trick with harmonicas. The song is in Amin, but if you play the harmonica of the fourth chord in the key of Amin,ie. D harmonica, you can get all the bluesy notes.
I am only sorry that I am just now finding you and your music!!! is that a Lee Oskar harmonica? also, I have never seen a neck rack like that! what brand is that? I seems to leave you a lot of room to move and sing...not jammed in your face!
+kishanabear Sorry for my late reply. It is indeed a Lee Oskar hamonica. Love 'em. Not sure what the neck brace brand is - I bought it from Turramurra Music in Sydney, Australia. Fabulous. It's heaps less chunky than other brands.

Thanks Susan, I just found this comment now. Hoping you are well xx
Great version! My favourite song by the Waifs. Your version is helped by the rather strong harmonica playing!

Many thanks. That means a lot. I am already out here 😂
This girl is pure Australian talent!
Awesome
Amazing!
Thanks Donna!!! That means a lot

You *made* the guitar, you can play it like that, sing, and play harmonica....all at the same time? That's astonishing. Bravo!!
Thanks for coming Al. Hope you had a terrific evening!

Clap clap clap! ♥ it! Nice work all round. Beautiful guitar - nice tone. Be proud. Wishing you continued success in all you venture, Jenny.

Damn you're good
Hey Jenny, Wicked cover and some great tone. I make instruments as a bit of a hobby (slide guitar, stomp boxes, cajons, amps etc) and would love to tackle an acoustic guitar. Do Thomas Lloyd give the opportunity to anyone to do this (with the right amount of $$) or are you just a very special person?
Scap that. Next time I'll read their damn website!
+Andrew Jackman Hahah. Awesome. Sorry for the delay getting back to you - only a year later. Did you ever get lessons with Thomas Lloyd Guitars? Amazing experience. I highly recommend it. You could probably exchange guitar making tips too if you're a maker yourself.
Awesome looking guitar! Will you please upload a video on how to play this song?
Hey, thanks! I am contemplating doing a video. I don't think I play it exactly the same as the Waifs, but the general vibe. :) I'll try and get a "how to video" up

Very , very talented ……
Thanks Rob
The guitar sounds awesome Jenny. Do you sell them at all? If so, how much are you selling them as I'd love to buy one. Thanks, Tones..
Aww thanks Tony. Alas, not selling them. But woudln't that be the dream. Happy playing
Awesome cover! What key is that harmonica in?
+Alec MacIsaac It's in the Key of D. There's a good trick with harmonicas. The song is in Amin, but if you play the harmonica of the fourth chord in the key of Amin,ie. D harmonica, you can get all the bluesy notes.
Holy shit you're amazing
Hi there, what key is the harp you are playing? Thanks, Scott
Hey Scott,
It’s a D major harp
I am only sorry that I am just now finding you and your music!!! is that a Lee Oskar harmonica? also, I have never seen a neck rack like that! what brand is that? I seems to leave you a lot of room to move and sing...not jammed in your face!

Not sure what the neck brace brand is - I bought it from Turramurra Music in Sydney, Australia. Fabulous. It's heaps less chunky than other brands.
What key is your harmonica?
The key of D :)
