introduce Danbury, Connecticut to its hard-hitting new EP, "this damn
song" at a rockin' evening on Thursday, May 18 at 8 p.m. at Molly
Darcy's Irish Pub on 34A Mill Plain Road in Danbury. Headlining the show
with Jen will be indie superstar Lucinda, a longtime Danbury favorite.
The performance at Molly Darcy's is one of the highlights of a Jen
Elliott and Bluestruck tour which has included among other dates,
engagements in Albany NY, Syracuse NY, Watertown CT, and Manhattan.
Jen Elliott-- who grew up in Jacksonville, FL but now lives in
Manhattan-- was raised on traditional gospel and she still writes and
sings straight from her soul...but now it's rock n' roll that is her
first love. Her debut album with her band Bluestruck, THE SECRET'S OUT,
received Top 30 college radio airplay and critical acclaim from the
press nationwide. Jen has been featured in issues of Entertainment
Today, The Downtown Express, The Sun Herald, Inside Connection and
Keyboard Magazine. To date, the band has performed at the Black Potatoe
Festival 2005, NY Auto Show 2005, GoGirls Elite Showcase 2004, headlined
at the Global Entertainment & Media Summits 2003/2004. Jen continually
performs at top venues in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut and have
opened for Nils Lofgren, The Little River Band, and Nine Days. Her fans
eagerly await her new full album 8 DAYS DOWN, to be released this fall.
Music fans can currently hear Jen on college and independent radio and
podcasts throughout North America including Danbury's own WXCI.
With heartfelt lyrics, strong and memorable melodies, and an undeniable
stage presence, Lucinda has captured a grassroots following that most
signed artists would envy. With over 27,000 CDs sold at live shows,
Lucinda's achievements, among many others, include a national Top 30 AC
