Jenn Sheppard
Born and raised in New Waterford, Cape Breton (where the sun shines just a little brighter), Jenn Sheppard has always considered herself to be a small town girl and is proud of the fact.
Jenn has a vast catalogue of musical experiences to draw upon, from tribute shows to musicals and everything in between; including the The Cape Breton Summertime Revue, where she realized her dream of performing with comedians Bette MacDonald and Maynard Morrison. Jenn has had great success emulating voices like Patsy Cline, Anne Murray, Shania Twain, Mama Cass, Emmy Lou Harris and others, and has worn out even the most ambitious of dancers while fronting the very popular dance bands The Accents and more recently High Society.
Most recently, Jenn has had the opportunity to work closely with Heather Rankin (The Rankin Family), Lucy MacNeil (The Barras MacNeils) and Bette MacDonald in the original music and comedy touring hit show, Island Girls and Christmas 2020 saw her as part of a sextet of writers and performers for a music and comedy show called The Cape Breton Christmas Hour- a Two Hour Show.
With so many musical and comedic experiences in her history, in 2021 Jenn decided it was as good a time as any to share her song-writing with the world. With the help of some incredible and legendary talents, like Fred Lavery and her husband Stephen Muise, she penned a 13 track original album, titled The Good Ground. The songs are brought to life by incredible musicians who each brought their own good vibes to The Good Ground.
