     Jennifer "JJ" Jones began playing drums and guitar at age 14 while

been the drummer and arranger/producer for a multitude of bands and studio
projects covering a variety of styles, including funk-blues, instrumental jam,
alternative rock, power-pop, honky-tonk country and, most recently and
primarily, acoustic-folk.
     Currently relocated to Fort Collins, Colorado to play with the band Driftwood Fire, JJ plays and records with nationally touring singer/songwriters Ellis, Edie Carey, Julie Loyd, and Emily White. She has also played with Vance Gilbert, Tret Fure and Anne Heaton among many others. In June of 2008, JJ played with six different acts at the prestigious National Women's Music Festival, three of which were main-stage headliners. This last year saw JJ co-producing albums for Driftwood Fire and Emily White, and focusing on
collaborations with songwriters on arrangements and structuring.
     A sensitive and expressive player, JJ specializes in finding the just the right rhythmic feel, touch and dynamics to bring out the inherent beauty of a song.
