"Dirty, greasy down home blues at it's best...Jenny certainly could be the "Witch Queen Of New Orleans" with a voice like this..." Peter Merrett 106.7 Melbourne Australia
"...an Allman Brothers kind of charm. " - Southland Blues Magazine
Wammie Award Winners- Best Blues Act AND Best Blues Album
IBC (Int'l Blues Challenge) Winners- Best Self-Produced CD
Moonshine Society is the offspring of three promising young music scholars who came together at Boston’s renown Berklee College of Music. Of like minds and musical passions, they united in 2009 to create their own brand of soulful blues, roots rock and old-school R&B- if a fundamental definition is actually required. In truth, they teamed to craft their own formula of music that speaks to the soul and defies the labels of traditional musical confines.
The trio sealed their pact one moonlit night in the Anacostia Delta, where then and there, their name became written in the stars. They were to be Moonshine Society. Little did they know on that fateful night that they were buckled in on a launching pad set to rocket them at dizzying speed to performance destinations of their wildest dreams throughout the US and the world. In retrospect, though, it’s little wonder considering the band’s composition of killer talent, now four-plus strong.
Leading the troupe is impassioned, soulful singer and songwriter Jenny Langer, who has shared the stage with such musical greats as Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks and Jack Pearson of Allman Brothers fame, Buddy Guy, Susan Tedeschi of the Tedeschi Trucks Band, Gov't Mule, and Jimmy Vivino from Late Night with Conan O’Brien. Part vamp and part glamour girl, she is all-commanding in her on-stage deliveries and becomes pure sorceress spellbinding audiences with her searing hot vocals. To quote from her sizzling seductive rendition of “Fever” -what a lovely way to burn.
Others agree. In 2012, three members were inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame for their work with legendary harmonica player Charlie Sayles.
Locally in Washington, DC, the band and album have received Wammie awards for Best Blues Band and Best Blues Album and have repeatedly been named in Top Fan Favorite Lists in Washington, DC

Jenny Langer & Moonshine Society Biography
"...an Allman Brothers kind of charm. " - Southland Blues Magazine
“[An] act known to eat headliners alive...Jenny Langer is the kind of cultured blues shouter you could watch all night.” - Classic Rock Magazine
Winners of the 2020 International Blues Challenge (IBC)- Best Self-Produced album and fronted by Blues Hall of Fame artist Jenny Langer. #1 on US Blues Rock Radio, #2 on UK Blues Radio. Multiple Wammie Award winners.
Moonshine Society gives a big nod to Aesop’s theory that we’re known by the company we keep. So while staking claim to lofty Music Land real estate of their own with a searing, cutting-edge blend of blues, soul, rock and R&B, they continue to rack up powerhouse stripes rubbing elbows with the best. Johnny Winter, Gov’t Mule, Derek Trucks, Susan Tedeschi, Tower of Power, John Mayall, Roomful of Blues, John Mayer and Ron Holloway count among the legends the band and its members have accompanied and opened for, not to mention other greats as Tab Benoit, George Clinton and the Funkadelic, Danny Gatton and Samantha Fish.

In retrospect, though, it’s little wonder considering the band’s composition of killer talent, now four-plus strong.
Leading the troupe is impassioned, soulful singer and songwriter Black Betty, who has shared the stage with such musical greats as Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks and Jack Pearson of Allman Brothers fame, Susan Tedeschi of the Tedeschi Trucks band and Jimmy Vivino from “Late Night with Conan O’Brien”. Part vamp and part glamour girl, she is all-commanding in her on-stage deliveries and becomes pure sorceress spellbinding audiences with her searing hot vocals. To quote from her sizzlingly seductive rendition of “Fever” –what a lovely way to burn.
“Washington DC's moonshine society appear to be on a mission, driven by frontwoman, songwriter and producer Jenny Langer, to expel blues music's often sexist past through the likes of the gloriously powerful title track, 'Sweet Thing', from the album of the same name. All power to her.” - RnR Magazine (UK)
