Jeniferever is a band from Uppsala, Sweden formed in 1996. Their music could be described as ambient indie rock or post-rock; it is slow-paced, melodic, and frequently building to an orchestral-like climax. Their sound has been compared to bands such as The Appleseed Cast and Sigur Rós. Their name is derived from a 1989 Smashing Pumpkins song of the same name.

They released a four track EP Iris on the Big Scary Monsters Recording Company label. Their debut full-length record Choose a Bright Morning was released on Drowned in Sound Recordings and was later re-released through Monotreme Records. Their second album Spring Tides was released on Monotreme Records in 2009. The band released its third album Silesia on 11 April 2011. A track from Silesia, "Waifs & Strays", was released for free download in January 2011. The band have not officially announced that they have disbanded, but have been on a long-term hiatus since 2012 with the guitarist, Martin Sandström, moving towards another band, Ştiu Nu Ştiu.
