"Self Titled"

Produced by Jeff Jensen and Nate LaPointe, "Self Titled" demonstrates this young bands ability to respect tradition while showing impressive originality and creativity. This is a fun album with humorous and playful songs like "Cat Song", and "Driving Wheel"; it has passionate down home blues like "Damn Fine Woman", and "Fine Myself All Alone"; Out of the box originals like "I Fell", "Can't Believe We're Through" and "Something In The Water" and great hooks with "Here I Come Again", and "Something About You". It really has something for everyone, a multi-genre blues album.



---"The Jeff Jensen Band features blues the way it's supposed to be: firm in the grasp of tradition while offering a fresh voice that can be enjoyed by any audience."
---"This first album is a sure-fire winner, and quite naturally beckons the start of a long and rewarding career that's steeped in tradition while offering this southern California sound to a wider audience." Jim Santella - Southaland BLUES Mag review April 2007 (Apr 1, 2007)
---"I've known Jeff and the band for going on four years now and I find this record is a good reflection of their tastes and the diversity of their backgrounds. They've played together a long time which is evident in how tight this record is and they're not afraid to take chances, which is good."
---"I must admit I'm at a loss on "Cat Song", written by Nate LaPointe. I get the fact his wife left him & she took the cat with her but Nate, if it ain't a dog…it aint worth fighting for!! Nuff said!"
Kyle (Pres. Phoenix Blues Society) (Aug 10, 2007)
---"Jeff Jensen's self titled debut CD is well produced and a very strong representation of one of the more talented blues bands in the LA area, great job guys!!" Michael John
---"Take note peoples! This is a BAAAADD dude!"Gino Matteo
