Description:

Live at The Mauch Chunk Opera House is the stunning follow-up to the Canadian/American trio's hit CD Firecracker. Taken from a live concert performance at one of America's oldest vaudeville theaters, this beautifully produced album features many tracks that have not appeared on previous releases including their long sought after version of Jane Siberry's classic "Calling All Angels." The recording is also the first to feature newcomer Heather Masse who joins Nicky Mehta and Ruth Moody with her lush vocal harmonies and tasteful bass playing. Along with virtuoso instrumentalist Jeremy Penner on fiddle, Live at The Mauch Chunk Opera House captures the magic of The Wailin' Jennys' concert experience.

4Nice collections of songs, fine performance...  Feb 28, 2010
The Wailin' Jennys' new album was recorded live in '08 in Philadelphia's famous Mauch Chunk Opera House. The presentation is thoughtful and effective - commencing with two voice-only tunes, the pace gently warms up, incorporating additional harmonies and instruments as the show progresses. This is a fine performance, and the songs are strong. Material is pulled from the Jennys' 3 studio releases. Start with the studio CDs if The Jennys are new to you - The Jennys' 40 Days and Heather Masse's 1st solo album, Bird Song, are outstanding.

GENRES: Contemporary Folk.

BUY IF YOU LIKE: The Dixie Chicks, Shawn Colvin, Indigo Girls.

MUST HEAR TRACKS: "Driving," "Arlington," "One More Dollar," "Begin," "Calling All angels."

5Live Success  Jan 28, 2010
Great performing from a live performance -- this really tests a group's mettle. Are they musical, spontaneous, passionate, yet still tight and clean with their technique? The answer is yes on all counts! What a fine group.

5Beautiful easy listening  Oct 28, 2009
To be brief, if you are in one of those moods where you want to let a piece of music carry you away, sit down, close your eyes and go adrift with this. Absolutely beautiful harmonizing. Anyone who doesn't like this needs to slow down.

5Great recording of a great performance  Oct 13, 2009
There's not much to add to the other reviews. The recording is very good for a live performance. The Wailin' Jennys sing wonderful harmonies. I only live about a 45 minute drive from the Mauch Chunk Opera House in Jim Thorpe and I did not know they were playing there - not sure how I missed it. After hearing the CD I am obsessively watching emails and their web site for future performances in my area.

Wailin' Jennys have wonderful harmonies and angelic sounds. Somewhat meloncolie. Product arrived in good condition and promptly.
