THE JENSEN SISTERS “NEW WAVE RETRO COUNTRY”
A modern duo rooted in the old-school twang of the country singers, outlaws, and roots-rockers who came before them, the Jensen Sisters are torchbearers of a sound they proudly call “new wave retro country.” It’s a timeless sound built for honky-tonks, highways, and all places in between, and it’s taken the harmony-singing siblings from their small hometown of Goodridge, Minnesota — population: 132 — to stages across the Midwest. Armed with original songs that navigate the ins and outs of new love, old habits, and the uneasy tug-of-war between the lure of the open road and the comforts of home, Kendra and Kansas Jensen have built their audience song-by-song, show-by-show, story-by-story. They begin a new chapter of that story with Yellow Frames, a debut album that arrives on the heels of the duo being crowned “New Artist of the Year” at the 2020 Midwest CMAs. As their recognition grows, the Jensens refuse to chase after the fleeting trends of country-pop, sticking instead to a more vintage-leaning brand of country music that feels as raw and as natural as their small-town roots.
