It’s easy when someone is on the rise to attach your support to them. It’s like a credibility stock market. If you can get in while the “stock is low” and stay on board as it rises, you can be a tastemaker and a trendsetter. Alternately, you can be a beacon of support for the scene around you. You can choose to be the smiling face clapping in the audience for your friends. You could choose to be like Jen Tackett.

Jen is a champion for everyone around her trying to make it work. Supporting the people around her, shining the light she can on the people who need it, creating avenues for exposure, not as a self-aggrandizement, but as a means to be a part of rising tide that pulls up all ships. It’s admirable. She’s admirable. She’s also extremely talented as a writer and performer.

On her way to releasing her first EP, Jen has taken a stop at releasing her first single, “If I Told You,” available on 2/11/22. The single is a heartfelt gesture that raises the question, what would the person who stands in front of you think, if you told them about the places you’ve been, things you’ve done. The wordplay and sentiment are strong with the single and the musicianship and honest vocals grab and hold your attention. It’s a fantastically written song, with a strong message that I think we all can identify. The things we hide to protect ourselves and others around us and wondering what would happen if we just stopped and told the truth.

If you don’t know Jen Tackett, this is a great time to be introduced. “If I Told You” is out 2/11/22 and you can pre-save the single so it’s waiting on you. Give the single a listen and then wait with bated breath like the rest of us for the EP coming soon - and don’t miss your chance to hear Jen supporting the new music on the road!

You can listen to “If I Told You” here.
