From the Windy City comes a rising talent named Jennifer Onesto. Jennifer was one of the winners at the annual Winterbreak Games Music Alive Contest held at The Park West Theater sponsored by The City of Chicago. Her "Twenty Houses" CD was picked over 40 other entries by 101.9 'The Mix' radio station which sponsored her in this contest. Because she was one of the winners, The Jennifer Onesto Band was invited to perform at The Taste of Chicago at Grant Park in downtown Chicago, which is Chicago's largest outdoor music fest.

Self-described as "New Country", Jennifer performed in several Chicago bands before releasing her 'Twenty Houses' CD. Jennifer uniquely crafts each of her songs in words, hooks and arrangement to create a CD that is radio-ready for pop, rock and even bold country stations. She reminds me of a female Tom Petty in her ability to blend an original melody with lyrics and hooks that stay in your head for days.

This is an artist that I'm hoping to see touring and supporting this excellent CD! You can hear cuts from her CD at http://mp3.com/jenniferonesto as well purchase a DAM copy of 'Twenty Houses'.
