July 2022: Good Luck Road
post originally published july 1, 2022
A box of songs
Look inside
You’ll find a story
Scratched off by a penny
Inside lives a small town
A parent a child
Two wheels four wheels
Life begun life lost
A fishing pole
An unmade bed
Store this box someplace cool and dark
Perhaps next to your grandmother’s tomato jars
May it gather dust by and by
But keep a penny handy
For the hard times

We did it. I'm getting emotional with the "at last" feeling of this huge effort coming to a close. Thank you for making this music possible.
Love,
Jenner
Good Luck Road Reviews
"Messages of reflections of the past, wisdom of the present, and sad warnings for the future. No good record collection is complete without GOOD LUCK ROAD." – Bruce Swan, Host of "Music My Mother Would Not Like" WSFM 103.3, Asheville, NC
"There is something that happens inside a good song. A bicycle can take you back to your hometown; a list of baby names becomes a prayer; the voice of a toothless refrigerator man reminds you to say “I love you.” In his latest release, Good Luck Road, Jenner Fox brings to life stories and soundscapes from the small Wyoming town of Dayton. The artful tone, the poetry, the unparalleled compassion does something only the brave ones do: lets us in." – Nugget Newspaper
“Jenner Fox is the rare artist who comes along and doesn’t sound like anybody else.” Jim Goodwin, Jive Radio, KJIV 96.5FM, Madras, OR
Words of Wisdom from Jack Russell
"The despair that you feel at the loss of a loved one. The elation you feel at a great triumph. The glory evoked by a blaze of stars in the night sky. The awe of a high cascading waterfall. The beauty of a wild meadow of springtime flowers. The feel of a gentle rain on your face. And yes the love you feel for one another. The list of course could go on and on. All are a great symphony." – Jack Russell's Obituary
