Jennifer's Career Began In Atlanta Where After College She Joined Violet A Band Compared To X And The Pixies. She Started Playing Solo After Quitting Violet And Moving To NYC. Her Influences Are Other Artists With A Fresh Take On Self-Awareness From Destroyer Silver Jews Aimee Mann And Smog To Dylan And Petty As Well As Jay Z Kanye West And Dizzee Rascal. Jennifer Released Her Debut EP Truth Love Work In 2000. 'Time Out' Wrote "O'Connor Is Another Liz Phair Or Elliott Smith Waiting To Happen. Her Understated Guitar-Based Songs Lack The Primping Preening And Obviousness Of Phair And The Sad-Sack Whining Of Smith. Rather Her Matter-Of-Fact Lyrics Tell Stories That Us Regular Joes Can Relate To." Her Self-Released Self-Titled Debut Followed In 2002 And Red Panda Released The Acclaimed 'The Color And The Light' In May 2005. 'Over The Mountain…' Is Her 3rd Full-Length But It Has The Immediacy Of A Debut. The Past Year Saw Many Personal Upheavals Which Informed It More Than She Expected. "It's Been So Tumultuous I Think That Inevitably Crept Into My Songs " She Says. "I Wouldn't Say That I Always Write From Experience But I Did A Lot Of It On This Record." For Her Most Emotional Songs Yet She Self-Produced And Got Rid Of Reverb And Extraneous Sounds Giving Them An Urgency That Her Other Records Didn't Always Have. She Explains "There's A Lot Of Space We Purposefully Pared Everything Down To What Was Necessary For The Song." While Jennifer Writes And Often Performs Alone On Guitar Each Song Here Save The Acoustic Single-Take "Today" Is Fleshed Out With A Band That Includes Her Longtime Drummer Jon Langmead James McNew Yo La Tengo On Bass Kendall Meade Sparklehorse Mascott On Keyboards & Vocals And Other Friends Including Britt Daniel Spoon On Vocals And Al Weatherhead Who Produced 'Color...' & Plays Guitar On Many Tracks.
