Jean Synodinos (that's sin-uh-DEE-nus) listens with amazement to the stories people tell her. Those curious single pearls of wisdom, or the full volumes of odd things that just happen to people proving truth is stranger than fiction. In Jean's case, it's things like:

...That humiliating defeat on a nationally-televised game show at the hands of a McDonald's manager ...Those 500 meals of baked ziti consumed in a 2 year span while in a hit off-Broadway show ...The 6th grade teacher who suggested she never, ever sing...

Turns out that teacher was just dead wrong. With a voice that's been hailed as "big league" and "show-stopping," award-winning songs and accomplished acoustic guitar work, Jean is always out to push the envelope a little bit more with each song and each show. Energetically. Enthusiastically.

But those stories... As Jean suggests: "It's not to suggest that these stories necessarily find their way into songs, but these are the things we all tell each other to break the ice, to get to the next level, to know each other better. Compare a life to a song, and it seems to me that the curious story is the equivalent of the good chorus, while the stuff of every day living, well, there are your verses and thats the real meat on the bones, isn't it?"

Following up on her acclaimed debut CD Lucky, Jean completed work on Breathe, released in June 2006. Picking up where Lucky left off, "Breathe's" eleven tracks groove even harder musically and dig even deeper lyrically. The disc features thoroughbred performances by Charles Rieser on guitars (The Scabs, Boombox), Brad Houser on bass (Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians), and Rob Hooper on drums (Guy Forsythe, Colin Gilmore).

Jean lives in Austin, TX with her husband, guitarist and producer Charles Rieser. A breast cancer survivor, she likes reminding everyone to be pro-active about their health. Always kind to animals, she gardens in spite of repeated failures and enjoys the occasional single malt scotch.
