JENNIFER: People called me to sing on their records, club owners called me to sing at their club, and I would tape the gig because they really wanted me to play there and introduced me as "here she is - was - half of Story".
JENNIFER: If I had any goals, it would be to inspire other people to be creative - in any way - whatever it is, and to find it in themselves to find that creative voice.

Jennifer Kimball's guitar was built through a unique arrangement between John Colvin and T.J. Thompson, a Concord, Massachusetts-based custom luthier and restorer of early 1930s Martins (tjtomson@aol.com).

 George Graham Reviews Jennifer Kimball's "Oh Hear Us"
Kimball recorded this CD in 2003, at the time she was pregnant, and was still very much feeling the loss of her mother.
Jennifer Kimball's new CD, Oh Hear Us, only her second since she left The Story almost 12 years ago, is a fine recording that highlights her outstanding songwriting, something that was not so evident in the Story, most of whose songs were written by Jonatha Brooke.
Jennifer Kimball is not the most prolific artist on the scene, and each of her two CDs followed a period of personal crisis.

 ASCAP Presents...Jennifer Kimball
Jennifer Kimball's new CD, Veering From the Wave (Imaginary Road/Polygram), isn't so much a solo debut as it is a reintroduction to a familiar artist.

Kimball released her first solo album at this time, the critically acclaimed Veering from the Wave (Imaginary Road/PolyGram, 1998), and her voice became synonymous with intelligent female folk music a quarter century after Joni Mitchell broke the mold.
Kimball looks directly in the face of imminent death in "Last Ride Home," a tender eulogy for her mother, with hints of a New Orleans funeral march, replete with horn section, in the form of a prayer or last testament.
Though there is a wide variety of material on Kimball's new cd Oh Hear Us, it is anything but eclectic: the profundity of the subjects Kimball tackles and the clarity of her musical vision are what unify the work and are the hallmarks of a mature artist.

 A new chapter for The Story's Jennifer Kimball by Seth Rogovoy
But unlike Garfunkel, who was never able to establish himself as a singer-songwriter in his own right, Kimball has quickly regrouped and to some people's surprise -- most notably her own -- she is on the verge of launching what promises to be a distinguished career as a solo singer- songwriter.
As Kimball explains, for her this is an entirely new and different feeling.
For while it may have appeared from the outside that she was one-half of a creative duo, in fact she was pretty much a hired hand in The Story, and towards the end of its dozen-year existence, a terribly unhappy one.

Jennifer and Jonatha (who does all the writing and guitar-playing) are two women, who embody all the pretention, political correctness, disdain and glory of the artsy alternative class (right down to the fl buckle boots) that frequent hip coffee bars and might well have initiated an enlightened twist on grunge style.
