Led by singer and guitarist Marco Fasolo, Jennifer Gentle started in the early 00’s as stoned-out-of-their-minds teens equally able to manage short psych pop explosions and 20-minute brain melting freakouts. They recorded a couple of self-released albums that raised interest abroad and became the first Italian band signed by US label Sub Pop, releasing two critically acclaimed LP's: 2005’s Valende (an exercise in hyperactive, sparkling pop mixed with pastoral vignettes), followed in 2007 by the much darker and convoluted The Midnight Room. With US and UK tours under their belt and their music on Rough Trade and Mojo compilations, JG went on to play also on BBC radio shows and several festivals, gaining fans like Graham Coxon, The Black Crowes, The Mars Volta and Jarvis Cocker. After 2008, Fasolo chose to concentrate on production. He came back in 2013 with the Universal Daughters’ album Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me, a beautifully heart-breaking charity project involving artists like Jarvis Cocker, Alan Vega, Gavin Friday, Chris Robinson, Ed Harcourt, Steve Wynn etc. In 2019 Marco Fasolo and JG are officially back with their new, self-titled album. Immaculately produced by Fasolo himself, it’s a sprawling release touching all of Fasolo’s musical obsessions, effortlessly embracing intricate baroque ballads, goofy funk, glam stomps, Joe Meek-like instrumentals and the trademark JG zippy psychedelia, without ever losing its focus on mood and detailed song construction.
