Jenn Grant
Jenn Grant (born 1980) is a Canadian folk pop singer-songwriter based in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Background
Born on Prince Edward Island to Ken (a vascular surgeon) and Heather Elizabeth Grant, she moved to Halifax with her mother and brother at age ten when their marriage broke up. She attended Saint Mary's University for a time and later graduated from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design University, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting.
Jenn's mother who was an inspiration to her career was named the Queen of Azaleas in 1973 in Norfolk, Virginia. Jenn's video for the song "The Fighter" uses 16 mm film footage of this parade and time, as this song and album are a dedication to her mother's life. Jenn's mother died in May 2012.
She is married to producer and musician Daniel Ledwell. They were married in October 2011.
Career
She performed as a musician for a time in her early teens, but stopped due to a bout of stage fright, and did not return to performing until her early 20s when she played some shows with The Heavy Blinkers. She then released an independent EP, Jenn Grant and Goodbye Twentieth Century, in 2005.

Orchestra for the Moon
by: Jenn GrantThe finale was over She laced up her boots And she walked out the doorway But you were still waiting For the encore And you're under a big yellow moon And she's still in the band room
But meanwhile the baby is born With a brother just two years old
Two curly brown-haired boys In a brown house with their mother In a brown house with their father Who could have loved you more? How's that for the encore?
The finale was over She laced up her boots And she walked out the doorway But someday you'll find her Singing for two little boys
Two curly brown-haired boys In a brown house with their mother In a brown house with their father Who could have loved you more?
Who could have loved you more? Who could have loved you more? Who could have loved you more?
Two curly brown-haired boys
