Jennifer’s atmospheric 2020 single ‘Sea Glass’ was described as ‘deeply poignant’ by Fatea Magazine and received national airplay. “I absolutely love that”, Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2. The song, written for Miranda Sykes, was included on the album 'Now We Are Four' by Show of Hands.
Collaborations include Eddi Reader and Nashville’s Darrell Scott who duetted on Jennifer’s second album. Produced by Boo Hewerdine, the album received national airplay and led to a live session for Bob Harris. “I am really, really loving the new album Merry-Go-Round. It’s beautiful”. Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2. Following a successful crowdfunding campaign, Jennifer recorded her next album at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios with producer Stephen W Tayler (Kate Bush). ’Carnforth Station’ received stunning reviews and was included in The Telegraphs’ ‘Best Folk Albums’.
