Jenny Lewis and Johnny Rice

Love is a wonderful thing, music is a wonderful thing and when these two combine it is a wonderful thing. We all can look forward to couple Jenny Lewis and Johnny Rice’s new album I’m Having Fun Now, as well as their tour.

The album will be released on August 31st and the couple’s biography describes the album as “The exuberance of love songs like Scissor Runner mask some of the record’s darkness, with Lewis chronicling the economic demise of her beloved California in Big Wave, Rice’s haunting vocal on Animal, and both songwriters raising a middle-finger kiss off in the acerbic My Pet Snakes. The overall result is genuine and original pop music for Right Now. This is not a Rilo Kiley record, a Jenny Lewis record, or a Johnathan Rice record. This is Jenny and Johnny. They’re having fun now, and they want you to, too.” You can go to their website and download ‘Scissor Runner’ for a free preview.

They will also be touring this fall starting September 1st. They will have a single show in the United Kingdom in December. For tour dates and pre-order packages check out jennyandjohnnymusic.com.
