All the Tea in China

A song I wrote this about memories I had when I was a kid and the dreams you'd wished had come true.

Memories Of The Future

The lyrics are an attempt to recreate the (apparent) innocence of the songs of The Great American Songbook

John Jenkins is carving out a path for himself as a renowned singer/songwriter on the UK folk, country, and Americana scene. Jenkins is a master of melody, understated lyrics, and deft chord changes, while his songs have been hailed wherever music is written about.

Jenkins has developed an engaged audience of fans and has established himself as a live touring act, both solo and collaboratively and has supported Chris Difford (Squeeze), Jarrod Dickenson, Robert Vincent (AMAUK Artist of the Year), and Steve Tilson in recent years. 

He recently completed a 12-date UK tour in July 2023 with Oxford’s ‘Pippa Murdie’ (Storm the Palace). 


Jenkins’s latest body of work, the 2023 album ‘Tuebrook’ released very recently has gained the admiration from the likes of Folk Radio UK, Americana UK, Fatea and many more magazines.


The album was so-produced by John Jenkins and Jon Lawton (Sami Yusuf, Two Black Sheep) and mastered by Pete Maher (The Rolling Stones, U2, Patti Smith). It is available on CD and Digital and features the singles “Shadows” and “Christopher Roberts”


Two singles from the forthcoming album “Tuebrook” have been released in recent months.

“One to watch” - NSAI – Nashville Songwriters Association International

Praise for the “Tuebrook” Album

Maximum Volume 

“This is the work of one of the UK’s best and most original songwriters”.

Americana UK

“This masterful collection highlights why Jenkins is fast becoming one of Liverpool’s most respected singer-songwriters”.

Rocking Magpie

“Nothing could prepare me what was about to unfold …This Album let me speechless”.

Spill Magazine Toronto Canada

“One incredible Album ... Tuebrook stands out in the same way Nebraska stood out for Bruce Springsteen”.

Liverpool Acoustic
“This is a fantastic album and solidifies Jenkins as a truly formidable songwriting talent”.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *
‘Tuebrook” is a piece of art that moves the listener, cajoles it, defends the right of the listener to feel the crush of overwhelming humanity, and then lifts with hope…this is an album for the age, and to hear it is to love it.”

Stereo Stickman 30th June 2023
A uniquely evocative collection of songs. ‘Tuebrook’ makes for a timeless and consistently heartfelt listen, and effectively extends further still the ever-genuine repertoire of John Jenkins.
Fatea Magazine July 2023
“At times warmly nostalgic but without rose-tinted glasses, at others movingly sad, it’s an album for those of a certain age who have come to look back on their own younger days and those with whom they shared them, and as such, it’s a little gem

At The Barrier Magazine Aug 2023 
“Some of the warmest and most intimate, wistful, confessional reveries that you’re likely to hear this side of Christmas”.
