Wise Jennings

Lake Geneva, Wisconsin

Wise Jennings is a two-piece folk-rock band comprised of husband-and-wife Jeff and Melissa. Their musical style is considered folk-rock and is a fusion between gypsy, rockabilly, punk, americana, and country. The duo has intrigued because of their unique sound and song-writing and also because of how interesting they are to watch perform. With Melissa playing drums, singing, and playing harmonica and Jeff hammering away on his unique guitar rig, playing bass pedal with his feet, and singing, audiences have been both taken with their music and fascinated with how two people can do so much and create so much sound. Embarking on their fifth year, Wise Jennings has released four albums, will release their fifth album in the spring of 2022, and have been nominated for Best Americana Band by the Wisconsin Area Music Industry. Wise Jennings has played Mile of Music Festival, Summer Fest, The Leavitt-Amp Artist Series in Sheboygan, The Thrasher Opera House, The Bend Theatre, and hundreds of festivals and shows/showcases in Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, and South Dakota.
