Jennifer Femme is a fusion band from Chicago, known for genre fluidity and impressive, though non-pretentious, musicality. Their debut album Private Show “proves that jazz can be contemporary, that vocals can be an instrument in the hands of a professional, that eclecticism can work if you know what you’re doing.” (Indie Boulevard). The band consists of lead vocalist/songwriter/guitarist Alexis Kellogg, saxophonist Aja Essex, guitarist Quinn Miller, drummer Anna Poeht, cellist Todd Aulwurm, and bassist Aster Reyes. Following a sold out album release show in October 2025, Jennifer Femme is preparing for a midwest tour this Spring and a mainstage feature at Chicago’s Midsommarfest this Summer.
discography
“Eight tracks pass like a journey through different stylistic zones. Femme works with country, Latin rhythms, orchestral retro, rock energy. This eclecticism might seem chaotic, but in reality the album maintains an internal logic. It’s a demonstration of range, an exploration of where exactly Femme’s voice and vision sound most convincing. Private Show embraces this exploratory spirit fully.”
