Intro

Jenny & Tyler (Jenny and Tyler Somers) are a Nashville-based duo whose work occupies the intersection of indie folk, Americana, and contemporary Christian music. Emerging in the late 2000s, they built a dedicated following through a relentless touring schedule and a series of independent releases that showcased their signature 'soul-grass' style.

Their sound is defined by intricate vocal harmonies, percussive acoustic guitar work, and a lyrical focus on 'abiding' - a theme of spiritual and relational rest. They are often associated with the 'New Liturgy' movement of the 2010s, alongside peers like Sandra McCracken, though their sound leans more toward folk-pop than traditional hymnody. Critical consensus highlights their ability to maintain a high level of production polish while retaining the intimacy of a living-room performance. Their career arc shows a transition from earnest folk-pop toward more expansive, cinematic arrangements, particularly on albums like 'Of This I'm Sure', while always returning to the core of their two-part vocal chemistry.
