Colleen Jones (a.k.a. Leeny Jones) is a Canadian singer-songwriter based in Gatineau, QC. Born and raised in the small town of Chapeau, QC, deep in the Ottawa Valley, Jones' music and sound are strongly influenced by the country-folk roots of her upbringing mixed with her spunky attitude. Like many artists, Jones uses music as an emotional and creative outlet, to move through life’s challenges and heartbreaks, as well as its beauty. Whether she is singing about her everyday musings of life in Gatineau, grief and loss, or the frustration of not being able to get your bike repaired in a timely fashion due to Covid supply-chain issues, she always ties it together with that — literal and figurative — twinkle in her eye.

Jones is best-known as the former bassist and backup vocalist for Ottawa dream-pop outfit Sparklesaurus, who disbanded in late 2019. Since 2020, she has been writing and releasing original music under the artist name Leeny Jones and playing shows with her band Leeny & The Boys.
