Guitarist/songwriter Jen Leigh is a funk and rock machine.

Inspired by Hendrix, P-Funk, vintage soul music, and all things rock as a teen, she grew up in CT, and eventually made Austin, TX and southern California her homes as an adult. She has toured with a long list of eclectic national and independent artists as a "side-woman" in addition to fronting her own jam band aptly called 'The Dirty Bunch'. She got her nicknames 'dirty jenny' & 'jendrix' due to her aggressive playing style, guitar tone, wah prowess, and live performances. Her very first professional job as a musician was playing on Michael Jackson's HIStory BOOK 1 album at only 22 years old. She is the sole female guitarist to ever play on an MJ studio recording. In late 2022, Jen was chosen to be the Guitar 1 chair for Broadway's MJ The Musical 1st National US tour in 2023/2024.. She has become a highly sought after session guitarist, in addition to creating guitar loops for LANDR's guitar library. She also created a Chromatic loop set based on her personal playing style, titled 'Funk Rock Explosion' which can be purchased at the image link below.

"If Jimi Hendrix were reborn as a funky, bulldog-loving blonde woman, he'd come back in the form of dirty jenny."
