Based in the US Northwest, Jenny Don’t and the Spurs have spent over a decade building a global reputation as hard-working stalwarts of the Country Western scene, with dynamic music that also acknowledges their roots in garage rock and cowpunk.
The ’Spurs have just completed a six week tour in mainland Europe to promote their new album, ‘Broken Hearted Blue’, which is out now on Fluff And Gravy Records. A previously announced run of fourteen UK dates in February 2025 will now be complemented by three further shows in May, including appearances at the Kilkenny Roots Festival in Ireland and Red Rooster Festival in Suffolk. The full itinerary can be seen above and includes two venue changes to the original schedule.
The band have today made a fan made video available for their current single, ‘Flying High’, which is available on limited edition 7” vinyl and also opens the album. Featuring footage of them on the road in both the USA and Europe, it can be seen HERE.
‘Broken Hearted Blue’ presents ten dynamic new songs on an album that asserts itself as a standout on the scene, with its high-octane rockin' delivery setting it apart from the herd. From the thunderous bassline of the instrumental ‘Sidewinder' to the infectious melody of 'Unlucky Love', reminiscent of Lee Hazlewood's ‘60s style, each song possesses its own distinct charm while seamlessly upholding the album's western essence.
Produced by Collin Hegna (Brian Jonestown Massacre, Federale), the album stands as a testament to his meticulous craftsmanship and guidance in helping the band to create a musical tapestry that highlights the talents of each member.
It also marks another significant milestone, with Buddy Weeks making his debut on drums following the loss to cancer in 2022 of drummer Sam Henry (The Wipers, Poison Idea, Napalm Beach). A devastating blow that would have halted many, the ’Spurs instead forged ahead and intensified their touring and recording activity, determined to honour his legacy. The addition of Weeks signals not only a new chapter, but also adds a fresh perspective and energy, symbolising their resilience.

VIVE LE ROCK
“Sonically and aesthetically, it provides a nice dip in the bygone C&W timestream that works as well today as it did back then”
NO DEPRESSION
“They are doing more than most to drag country music away from the overblown arena acts and take it back to the dive bars where it belongs 4.5/5”
