He completed However, following a heart attack in May, all focus shifted to maintaining her health and de-stressing her life, much of which meant letting go of some performing. She describes her current performing schedule as “highly selective,” but when the opportunity to reunite with Jake and Chad arose, there was nothing to consider. Jeni says, “These guys are two of the most important musical influ- ences in my life, and now, with all this water under the bridge, we have a chance to do the thing we’re good at together—minus the difficulties that say, a marriage can bring, or a 20-something ego might present, or even just the pressure of surviving a hand-to- mouth existence. Also, it isn’t lost on me how lucky I am to have a chance to breathe new life into this music post-heart attack. The timing could not have been designed any better.” A decade later. A decade wiser. A decade of water under the bridge. Perhaps you remember the Trio’s annual album release concerts, falling on the first Friday of December. Many came to associ- ate the start of the Holiday season this way, and as a bonus, get most of their gift shop- ping done at the CD table! These were more than just concerts—they were community events that were thoughtful and beautiful, and at the end of it you felt as if you knew Jake and Chad and Jeni so well you could just call them up and invite yourself to din- ner and it wouldn’t seem at all weird that a complete stranger had somehow acquired their phone number. It was as if in the details, they had ensured that even if you couldn’t recall which songs they played, and you could easily remember how the evening made you feel. And according to Jake, Chad and Jeni, that is the point. Jake says, “Music is a temporal medi- um; the moment the art is made it disap- pears into the air. Its impermanence is part and parcel of its power. The Trio’s strength was in creating an emotional imprint, which always outlast the music. It’s why we’re able to still name the slow song we danced to with that really cute girl in 7th grade. One thing the Trio agreed on was that the point of music was never ‘how high or fast or loud,’ it was always ‘how accurately one could elicit a specific emo- tional response.’ There was something about the three of us that made it easier to do that.” Jeni adds, “If I had a dollar for every time someone said ‘I hated that song until I heard your version,’ I’d have about $30 bucks, which is like...dinner out. Alone, and without glass of wine. But still, it’s din- ner out.” The shows on this reunion tour will offer up one of those concerts that if you miss it, regret will set in, especially because there’s no possibly of “I’ll catch the next one.” The Jeni Fleming Acoustic Trio will perform five concerts only, with shows in Billings, Bozeman, Missoula, and two in Rapid City, SD. Many of these venues are intimate, so seating is extremely limited and tickets will go fast. It’s so nice to hear band mates say some- thing nice about each other, isn’t it? Nothing like 10 years of hindsight to reveal just how good you had it. To that comment Jeni says, “they say you don’t know what you’ve got ‘til its gone, but we knew all along.” For tour dates, tickets, and further infor- mation, visit Jeni’s Facebook page or www.jenifleming.com. • page 8D • Volume 24, Number 5 - March 1, 2017 • The BoZone Entertainment Calendar • www.BoZone.com • 406-586-6730 ––– Tell ’em, “I Saw It In The BoZone!” The Slushy Slalom March 11th & 12th 11am Bridger Bowl March 1, 2017 The BoZone • Volume 24, Number 5
