For someone as videogenic as Jenny, her last videos for "Black Sand" was remarkably blah.

We're not sure if the Watson Twins are joining her, but Jenny is taking a break from Blake and the Under The Blacklight crew for another record in her own name. She'll have tons of other company on the LP, though, including beau Johnathan Rice and Interpol touring member "Farmer Dave" Scher (huh?), along with guest vocalists Chris Robinson, M. Ward, Elvis Costello (whoa), and Zooey Deschanel. Jenny and Zooey will be in the same room. What a hot great idea. (Hat tip to Muzzle of Bees for the heads up.)
