Joe Jencks in Concert
🎉Joe Jencks is back at Neighbourhood Unitarian Universalist Congregation!
Joe Jencks sings with a lyric baritone voice that has the edgy richness of a good sea-salt caramel. A 25-year veteran of the international Folk circuit, award-winning songwriter and celebrated vocalist based in the Chicago area, Joe delivers engaged musical narratives filled with heart, soul, groove, and grit.
Known for his music of social consciousness, Jencks has penned several #1 Folksongs including the ever-relevant Lady of The Harbor. Jencks’ CD Poets, Philosophers, Workers, and Wanderers earned #1 Artist, #1 Album, and #1 Song on the Folk Alliance/Folk DJ Chart and spent several weeks at #1 on the SIRIUS XM Americana Chart.
Joe was musical director for an annual retreat: Warriors Heart to Art, writing songs with military veterans. Joe is also a recording artist, producer, and Folk DJ (My Highway Home.~ on Folk Music Notebook). A dual US-Irish citizen, Jencks has also served as a Cultural Ambassador with the U.S. State Department. From Carnegie Hall to coffeehouses across North America, Joe has become a fan-favorite.
