3:30p - Nashville Song Pitch/Critique Skype sessions with #1 Hit Songwriter Jennifer Adan

Attendees will meet at the Buffalo Gap, and interact with Jen in Nashville via Skype (she'll have the song on her local computer)
Her journey began in San Mateo, California, when she was 10 years old. During a fifth-grade history class, Jennifer secretly wrote her first song unaware that it could lead to a career. At age 15, she revealed her talent by playing her parents a song she’d written for them for their 25th wedding anniversary. In addition, she let them know there were 100 more songs where that one came from.
After doing some research, Jennifer joined the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) and West Coast Songwriters Association (WCS). Both organizations provided contacts and educated her on the art of songwriting as well as the music business.
After winning a songwriting contest by Jeffrey Steele, she came to Nashville to work with him and meet other talented songwriters. Steele convinced Jennifer to make the cross-country move to Nashville away from her family in order to chase her dream.
Now, she has celebrated the success of a number one hit for Blake Shelton “She Wouldn’t Be Gone" And most recently, Jennifer's song "Race You to the Bottom" is the title track on the New Medicine cd and is climbing the charts! Also, her song "Don't Come Home" is featured on MTV's The Real World: San Diego Finale episode. Jennifer cowrote the song with Betsey Long, Freddy Litwiniuk, and Holly Elle, who is the artist on the song.
