I'm more of a classical fan, but I have no problems enjoying Jenni Lyn's playing.

The mandolin over the banjo is superb.

Headstock looks like it reads Chestnut? Is that a Jennings Chestnut she's holding? Thought she played a Randy Wood? Have not seen a Jennings Chestnut for about 30 years. Weren't a lot of those made. He built mostly to order.

She is really great. Another success trajectory from family band and bluegrass festival to Della Mae and the world stage (let us hope).

When I first heard of her it was the association of her name with the famous fiddle tunes, the Jenny Lind Polka, Jenny Lind Reel, and Jenny Lynn the fiddle tune Bill Monroe got from his Uncle Pen.

Jenni Lyn grew up in the same town that Jennings Chestnut had his shop in. I believe she had that mandolin as a teenager.

Just looked it up. You are correct. Conway, SC. Horry county. I lived in the next county south of there. Wasn't too far of a ride. That makes sense.

Did you live in Georgetown? I have spent time around there myself

No sir. Lived about 10 miles north of Georgetown. Just up the coast on 17. Pawley's Island, mainland side. The Waccamaw Neck. Walking distance to the intercostal waterway (Waccamaw River). We still vacation there, nearly every year. Love that area.

I lived in Columbia and vacationed a few times on Pawley's Island. It was my second favorite place next to Tybee.

We went to Tybee a few times. Very nice. Daughter spent last two years of college in Savannah.

I was lucky enough to catch Jenni at Huck Finn with Della Mae. Had the chance to chat with her. What a player and what a nice young woman as well!

When Della Mae came to the Palms in Winters, CA a year or so ago, she was playing a Randy Wood. I only know because I asked 😊
