“Jennifer Foster’s new album Powerline is a wonderful collection of songs. No shortage of sweet melodies or intimate lyrics, and all sung in a voice that is lovely and unpretentious” – Ron Sexsmith
Jennifer Foster is a Canadian singer-songwriter whose music blends classic pop-folk songwriting with warmth, curiosity, and emotional honesty. Her songs are hooky and heartfelt, inviting listeners in with melody and drawing them closer through her vivid storytelling.
Her new album, Powerline, out in April, is an acoustic-driven collection that offers Foster’s most personal songwriting to date. Part love letter, part map, many of the songs were inspired by the New Brunswick farm where she grew up – colourful snapshots of the landscape that shaped her, and of her rich inner world as she navigates relationship, loss, and change. It’s a goodbye to a time, place, and version of herself.
Powerline marks Jennifer’s fourth release; her previous album earned a JUNO nomination for Producer of the Year (Michael Phillip Wojewoda). She has collaborated widely across the Canadian music landscape, working with artists such as Ron Sexsmith, Carole Pope, Lori Cullen, Kevin Hearn (Barenaked Ladies), Moe Berg, and The Pursuit of Happiness. You might also recognize her from her five seasons singing as a “Jazzagal” on Schitt’s Creek. Whether she’s playing with her four-piece band or holding a room solo, it’s her warmth and authenticity that draw audiences in.
“It was my dad’s dream to have a farm. But he was learning as he went, so my whole upbringing was about experimentation and play”. Like a hobby farm where you find your way and make things up as you go along, Jennifer’s songs have a way of taking listeners to unexpected places – disarming, soul-deep, and very satisfying.
