Teen sensations `The Lockets` came to Sidewalks and told us about their superhot careers. Plus, they performed LIVE for us.
Mini-Biography:
Born in Wisconsin, sisters Jenny and Ashley are rising teen singers in the country and pop music world. They perform under the name, The Lockets.
Beginning her career with some modeling and acting, older sister Jenny appeared as the cover girl on the Kohl’s catalog and in several Kohl’s posters and ads and soon started acting in local commercials. Her younger sister Ashley soon followed with modeling for Levi’s and Kohl’s.
The sisters went to Los Angeles, where Ashley appeared in two Nintendo Wii commercials and Jenny filmed several spots on Disney, Nickelodeon, and Fox.
Jenny and Ashley performed as solo artists for a few years in LA, but soon found themselves in Nashville and recording several songs on Nashville’s Music Row with Tim McGraw’s co-producer, Darran Smith. Now together as “Jenny & Ashley,” the sisters have recorded six songs and their first single, “Indescribable”, is a remake of the original demo song that Ashley co-wrote.
