Jennifer Crook’s classic songwriting - with it’s vivd storytelling, beautiful imagery, and poignant mix of hope and experience - is both timeless and right on time.
A UK singer-songwriter and musician rooted in contemporary folk, roots and Americana, Jennifer’s solo albums have received critical acclaim from BBC Radio 2, the folk and national press. 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, The Folk Show, BBC Radio 2.

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 The Bob Harris Show. “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’. Also that year Jennifer was asked to contribute to the BBC Radio 2 programme ‘Girl with Guitar’ about the legendary Joni Mitchell.

Jennifer ’s self-produced musical almanac released in 2017 features a family of musical friends and collaborators including Eliza Carthy, Miranda Sykes (Show of Hands), Beth Porter (Spell Songs) and Charlie Jones (Robert Plant). She has toured with Snow Patrol, Boo Hewerdine, Declan O’Rourke and Andy Davis (The Korgis) amongst many others, and performed at numerous festivals and venues across the UK and Ireland.

Embarking on a bold new journey, Jennifer brings an exciting new musical landscape to her latest collection of timeless songs. With a stellar new band - Joe Coombs on electric guitars (Yola, Jaime Wyatt, Annie Keating), Rob Brian on drums (Goldfrapp, Lorenna McKennitt, Siouxsie Sioux) and Stuart Bruce on bass - Jennifer’s fifth album co-produced with multi-platinum recording engineer/producer Stuart Bruce (Band Aid, Van Morrison, Art Garfunkel, Madeleine Peyroux) will be out in September 2022.
With themes of perseverance, overcoming, and holding onto hope through darker times, Jennifer’s songs remind us that there is beauty to be found in the broken places and love is always showing us the way home.
