Jenny Wood

Musician and Wichita native Jenny Wood is a touring singer-songwriter who, although has spent much of her career traveling the country as a solo artist jennywood2

, is happy to call Wichita home. Spending much of her 20’s as a musician in Nashville, Jenny applies her knowledge gained from the music city to her local music community here in Wichita. A former music theater student at Wichita State University, Jenny has spent the last ten years growing and touring as a solo artist and currently continues to perform and write with local blues band The Watchers, rock band Pathos, and has recently been given the honor of joining L.A. based band GOODING. She is very eager to spread the GOODING’s message of financial literacy to schools across the country through GOODING’s program Funding The Future. Jenny performs, writes and tours full time with GOODING and still writes and performs solo in her off time. Jenny Wood Band is opening for Joan Jett this summer at the Wichita River Festival and then Jenny begins another GOODING tour in the north U.S. including performing at the Mile of Music Festival. She is very happy to be a full time musician and even happier to be a Wichitan.
