"Playfully inventive, deeply soulful, and frighteningly virtuosic..." - MUSICALLY SPEAKING
"All Species Parade may well be the versatile Jenny Scheinman’s best across a multi-genre career." - GLIDE MAGAZINE
"It's music for all species, past and present. My homage to the extraordinary biodiversity of the Pacific Northwest where I was raised. In that spirit, we play long. The solos spill over the edges. This is nature worship music. Undomesticated. 72 minutes. 10 songs. 4 sides. Epic!"-Jenny Scheinman
“For years, Scheinman nursed the idea of a musical homage to Humboldt County, in particular the area known as the Lost Coast, a remote, earthquake- and mudslide-prone region of coastal northern California, where she was raised. She considered the project from many angles. She wrote a song cycle based on the “crusty characters” from her hometown and sketched out a surrealist multimedia project based on the county’s namesake, Alexander Von Humboldt. She collaborated with filmmaker Ai Aiwane on a video installation about the Mattole River (Cojo Come Home) and immersed herself in the sounds and cultural history of the region, with hopes of conjuring, in music, the extraordinary diversity of life, past and present, in the Pacific Northwest. Her epic new release, All Species Parade, is the result of these meditations.”
