Jennifer Hope's new CD Velvet Fire, sponsored by Eddie Van Halen and produced by Warren Huart (The Fray, Aerosmith, Eve 6, Johnette Napolitano, James Blunt) is now available!
Shrouded in alternative pop rock, laced with sensuous synths and ethereal edges, Jennifer Hope brings listeners to a place of contrasts and a mystical ambiance. Hope cloaked in an intimate darkness is the distinction that defines this artists' music: dark yet light, soft but hard, restless and tranquil.

Jennifer Hope’s bio describes her as “an enigma”. As a musician whose training began in classical music, she has developed a fan base in the alternative pop/rock and goth/ethereal genres. As a singer/songwriter, she somewhat ventures away from traditional song structures, weaving intricate melodies around her deeply personal lyrics. Within the light of her voice and personality, she also explores and exposes the darkness within. An enigma, perhaps, but an artist, no doubt.
Demos of her new songs caught the attention of Eddie Van Halen, who immediately recognized her talent and potential. He stepped forward to sponsor the making of her new album, Velvet Fire. At the same time, producer Warren Huart had listened to songs that she submitted online and expressed interest in producing the album. With a sponsor, a renowned producer, A-list session players and a professional studio, she had the resources to record her music the way she envisioned it.
In this interview, Jennifer Hope discusses the craft of songwriting, the making of Velvet Fire, and the passion that drives her art. Read the interview with Examiner.com HERE.
