About Me

Hi, I'm just a Jen. And I'm secretly cheating on my boyfriend with my love for Codeine Velvet Club.

I study Music at Glasgow University along with English Language.


I spend a silly amount of time sitting on the bus going to uni so much so I probably spend more time going to uni than I do in all my classes...

Currently, spending far too much time considering Popular Music politics...

If I'm not on a bus, like to be doing my coursework I've forgotten about, I can also be found attached to my laptop composing/song-writing/arranging music/essays/Internetting/Youtubbing.

I do quite a lot of singing:
-Glasgow University Madrigirls- touring Orkney in July
-National Youth Choir of Scotland- touring Germany in July into August

I really love to travel. On the hit list this year is:
- Germany: Berlin, Dresden, Leipzig
- London
- Tenerife
- Orkney
- Portugal
I guess I'll be exhausted by the time I'm meant to be back at uni :-)

Music

I'll listen to anything from Fratellis, Codeine Velvet Club to Elgar, Beethoven, Howard Goodall, Schubert, Stockhausen, Debussy, Franz Ferdinand, Belle & Sebastian, Jo Mango, Figure 5, Laura Marling, Johnny Flynn, The Do, Bright Eyes, Sir Michael Tippet...

Anything as long as it's got a tune in it I can remember!

I'm a little bit addicted to Schubert Lieder songs right now.
