Artist History Jennifer began singing at a very young age learning all 12 minutes of Don McLean's "American Pie" by the age of three(or at least sang what she thought the words said). At the age of eight she organized concerts and plays with the kids on her street and entertained the entire neighborhood. At the age of 14 she began classical and operatic training. After discovering that every sentance her college teacher said began with "You can't..." she decided opera wasn't for her. Although looking back now it may have just been the teacher that wasn't. Jen has never accepted limitations. Today she carries that message through in her music by envolving lots of instrumentation and using vocal harmony wherever possible. Jen's first band was called Velvetbud. They did very well in the local LA scene but eventually parted ways May 2002. Jen is spending a lot of time writing, helping other local bands with promotion and booking and planning her wedding for June 7, 2003.
