Jennifer Vazquez was the final act that I saw this night, because it was getting darn late and I needed my beauty sleep. She's a new arrival to Los Angeles from New York and we're all glad to have her. Definitely in the female folk tradition, Jennifer is a strong singer and writer.

Interviews


LA MUSIC SCENE

Jennifer Vazquez is not a name that comes to mind when speaking about up and coming Singer/Songwriters in Los Angeles. I recently had the chance to catch her at a coffee house and was impressed with her soulful voice. I was also impressed how she
can sing with such innocence and purity.

Headlines "No Rest for the Wicked"

...Meanwhile, as zombies were being readied to roam the soundstages, film instructors Jeff Woods and Tim Mather set up shop just a few yards away to film a music video for L.A. artist Jennifer Vazquez. Woods and Mather have been working together for years as One Light Productions, as director and producer respectively. “Jen has been a good friend of ours for years,” says Mather. “We did a music video for her a couple of years ago, but Jeff has been wanting to do another for a while, and the Fourth of July break just seemed like a good time to do it.”
