  • Blues and Soul, Singer and Songwriter - Ina Forsman

    Blues and Soul, Singer and Songwriter - Ina Forsman
    Jun 18 2022
    Award-Winning, Finnish Blues Singer and Songwriter Ina Forsman calls in to The Junk and Jam Hour - all the way from Berlin, Germany - to discuss the joys and challenges of the work she had to put in to ensure that her latest, and third solo album, entitled 'All There Is' , was not just an exceptional collection of soul and blues music, but one that showcased her growth and evolution as an artist. Hailed as a contemplative songwriter, and a "vocal powerhouse," Ina's amazing musical journey began when she declared at six-years-old, that she was going to.be a singer, and started touring with a band at the age of 17. Other than discussing her upbringing, Ina shares her inspiration for some of her latest music, in particular lyrics that were born from the conversations she has recently had with the men in her life, and how some of the music was derived from the classic Motown sound. She also shares her passion for the blues genre, and how it has shaped her as an artist of soul. We also listen to and discuss her latest tracks, Don't Lose Today, a song about how our angst for building a better future for ourselves and loved ones, makes us easily forget how important it is to make the most of today, as well as Poor Heart, a song about our challenges with perseverance.   For more music by Ina Forsman, including her album All There Is - which critics have called a profound body of work - visit Ina Forsman For more about Junk and Jam, visit Junk and Jam Also visit Radio Free Brooklyn Background/bed music provided by freebeats.io

    Award-Winning Writer and Author, Survivor and Advocate - Jenna Ashlyn
    Feb 23 2022
    Award-Winning Writer and Author, Survivor and Advocate Jenna Ashlyn drops in to the The Junk and Jam Hour via Zoom, to talk all bout her life's work as a writer, which started at the age of 8, and how that skill has helped her cope and find joy after becoming a young widow, and surviving sexual violence and domestic abuse. She also shares how she uses her platform to encourage other survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and those battling mental health issues, to continue striving for a greater life after trauma. Jenna also recounts some of the autobiographical detail from her debut novel, Within the Gray, which follows a young widowed mother named Terra as she navigates the world after her husband’s death, and her 2022 follow-up, Sheila's Men, about a naïve romantic living in poverty -- who blindly marries a man in the hopes of providing a better life for herself and her daughter -- and finds herself subjected to emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. She not only talks in depth about her survival story, but about her life’s mission, dedicating her time and talents as voice for others, and as a volunteer for Southern Ohio’s Survivor Advocacy Outreach Program, providing support and services to victims of abuse. Most importantly, Jenna has found sincere joy since - and is not only happily engaged, but has a brand new, swag ride!
