JPR Live Session: Lesley Kernochan

Ways To Subscribe

Lesley Kernochan is one you can’t predict. One minute she’s howling a country tune with the midnight coyotes, and the next minute she’s delivering a full plate of swingin’ sass. Lesley has an eclectic background as a saxophonist, contemporary composer, operatically trained coloratura, vagabond cabarista, musical saw player, and now singer/songwriter. In each uniquely crafted song Lesley offers her intimate vocal prowess and earnest, playful spirit.

Lesley Kernochan has four albums of original music including an a cappella creation Undulating, her indie rock/pop/jazz sensation The Pickle Jar, the gold award-winning children’s album A Day in the Life of a Boogaleeboo, and her most recent Americana record A Calm Sun.

As FM Network Program Director and Music Director, Eric oversees many aspects of JPR's broadcast day. He still hosts the occasional Open Air or classical music shift, and is the driving force behind JPR Live Sessions - our popular series of live in-studio music performances and conversations.
