Jenny Whiteley is a two-time Juno Award winning Canadian country and folk singer-songwriter.

The daughter of blues musician Chris Whiteley and niece of children's artist Ken Whiteley, she began her musical career as one of "the kids" on Raffi albums, and her name appears notably, on "Baby Beluga". She came back in the 1990s with the country band Heartbreak Hill. Following that band's breakup, she released her self-titled debut album in 2001, and followed up with "Hopetown" in 2004. Both albums won the Juno Award for Best Roots & Traditional Album of the Year.

She has also collaborated with Sarah Harmer and Amy Millan.

Her third album, "Dear", was released in 2006.
