Jen Lush is an Adelaide singer-songwriter known for her dynamic and poetic blend of folk and art-rock. Drawing inspiration from Feist, Iron & Wine and Anaïs Mitchell, her music weaves intimate storytelling into evocative, experimental soundscapes.
From her debut solo album of poem songs ‘The Night’s Insomnia’ to two award winning albums in three years, Jen and her stellar band 'The Field' (James Brown, Paul Angas, Sam Cagney and Mark Seddon) have performed at festivals and venues across SA, VIC, NSW, WA and TAS.
Her latest album ‘Hum of the Mettle’ debuted at #11 on the AIR charts and was awarded ARBA’s Roots Album of The Year in 2023. The record sets contemporary Australian poetry by Renee Pettitt-Schipp, Ali Cobby Eckermann, Maria Zajkowski, Graham Kershaw and Kevin Brophy to richly layered, artful arrangements.
