Jenny Parenteau: Shadows, Sweetness & Strings

Jenny Parenteau presents My Musical Memoir

Shadows, Sweetness and Strings: My Musical Memoir is more than a concert—it is a heartfelt reflection on a life fully lived, told through stories, songs, laughter, heartbreak, and hard-won wisdom.

Drawing on a rich catalogue of originals alongside newly written material, Jenny invites audiences to accompany her on the winding and often unexpected journey that has shaped her life. With honesty, humour, and remarkable generosity of spirit, she opens the door to her memories, sharing moments of triumph and vulnerability that will resonate with anyone who has loved deeply, lost painfully, and found the courage to begin again.

Supported by an exquisite acoustic ensemble featuring mandolin, accordion, fretless bass and rhythm, the performance creates a rich and evocative musical landscape. Together, the musicians weave intricate harmonies and vibrant rhythms that carry the audience through the many chapters of Jenny’s story. From tender ballads and playful reminiscences to uplifting celebrations of resilience and renewal, every song serves as a stepping stone along the path of a remarkable life.

Part concert, part storytelling, and part celebration of a life lived with courage and curiosity, Shadows, Sweetness and Strings offers audiences an opportunity to laugh, reflect, remember and reconnect with their own journeys. It is a show that speaks to the universal experiences of loss, love, change and renewal, reminding us that even our most challenging chapters contribute to the richness of the story we are living.

Come for the stories, stay for the songs, and leave with a renewed appreciation for the beautiful, unpredictable ride of life.
