Jenny Simpson (album)

It includes the single "Ticket Out of Kansas", Simpson's only chart entry, which was previously recorded by Regina Regina on their debut album. Also included is "Grow Young with You", a duet with Michael Peterson. This song was later recorded by Andy Griggs and Coley McCabe for the soundtrack to the 2000 film Where the Heart Is.[1]

Jana Pendragon of Allmusic gave the album two stars out of five, writing that Simpson "sounds like a million other young women trying to break into pop-country music."[2] Jeffrey B. Remz of Country Standard Time said that Simpson's voice was "pleasant enough", but thought that the album's sound lacked variety.[3]
