Since the 2014 release of her stellar debut album Fear, Pride & a few Stubborn Angels, Jen has been busy touring, recording, and earning the accolades that come with the hard work of being an Alt Country troubadour.

About Little Village Sessions:
Little Village is a collaborative concert between established Australian contemporary musicians, USQ Music staff, and USQ Music students.
In previous years Little Village has presented concerts featuring Wendy Matthews, Rick Price, and Sara Storer – rearranging their classic recordings for a one-off concert event.
Little Village focuses on creating both a unique experience for visiting artists, and an opportunity for USQ music students to experience working with a professional artist, helping their transition into the modern music industry.
By drawing together the expertise of USQ music staff, university facilities and technical capacity, the Little Village events create a high level experience of industry, seeing students putting into practice many of the skills developed throughout their tertiary study.
