Jenny And Johnny To Appear On Season Premiere of Gossip Girl!
TONIGHT - September 26th, 2011

For those of you who haven’t heard – Jenny Lewis and Jonathan Rice banded together in August 2010 to release their debut  I’m Having Fun Now (Warner Bros.). The duo is now set to make a cameo appearance (as themselves) on the season premiere of The CW’s “Gossip Girl” on September 26th at 8/7 c. Though the band is just flexing their thesbian muscles in the episode, their single “My Pet Snakes” will be featured on this season’s soundtrack.
 
Additionally, West Coasters can catch Jenny Lewis playing a run of solo dates in October! Point your browsers HERE for more information.
 
Jenny And Johnny have spent the last year traversing the states, crossing the pond and heading down under in a whirlwind international tour. From Laneway to Coachella, Sasquatch to Glastonbury, from Conan to Kimmel, the two J’s are making the rounds, spreading their slew of up-beat choruses, refrains wrought with worldly cynicism, harmonious discord and whip-smart rock n’ roll.
 
 
Praise for I’m Having Fun Now:
 
"Rilo Kiley's Jenny Lewis and singer-songwriter/boyfriend Johnathan Rice have both had their moments of pure-pop confection in the past, but never as crazily delicious as here" – Spin
 
“J&J's vocals blend beautifully throughout — sweet harmony that makes discord go down easy.” – Rolling Stone
“On I'm Having Fun Now, the duo's chemistry is audible: Lewis and Rice sing with the confidence of a more seasoned songwriting team, as they trade verses and craft beautiful harmonies throughout the album's 11 pop-driven tracks. Their smart lyrics, laid out over a solid pop-rock foundation, help make the album a rare find: a sweet pop record that reveals more with every listen.” - NPR Music 

“Jenny Lewis and Johnathan Rice are power pop’s new power couple. Brought together by a shared love of crisp boy-girl harmonies and ultra-hummable, ‘60s-inspired melodies, they sound Cracker Jack sweet even when they’re feeling bitter.” – Entertainment Weekly

“The songs are upbeat and breezy, looking back to folk-rock and 1970s California pop. I'm Having Fun Now isn't a collection of sentimental love songs. There's far more sparring banter than romance....(and) throughout the album, their barbs are wrapped in smiles and irrepressible tunes.” - New York Times, Jon Pareles

“Rooted in the slacker fuzz of again-au courant '90s indie rock and the close harmonies of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra, the release sounds liberating in the way that a well-seasoned couple can goof off and not worry about being perpetually impressive.” – Los Angeles Times
