The Wailin Jennys were featured on Uncut magazines December Tribute to Neil Young compilation Like A Hurricane. The bands song Old Man (from 40 Days) was in great company with other artists including The Flaming Lips, kd lang, Paul Weller, Cowboy Junkies, and The Be Good Tanyas. You can order archive issues at http://www.uncut.co.uk

Old Man has been added to the Starbucks in-store playlists in the U.S. Keep in ear out for the song. Were hoping to have more of their catalogue added in the near future!

The Jennys hometown concert in Winnipeg (recorded on October 14 -- my birthday!) is available on CBCs Concert on Demand website: http://www.cbc.ca/radio2/singleConcert.html?20080114jenny

Coming up on February 29 and March 1, the band returns to the stage at the Fitzgerald Theatre to perform on A Prairie Home Companion. Check out schedule and ticket info and your local PHC broadcaster here: http://prairiehome.publicradio.org/stations/
