Jen Ledger, epic drummer and serenading vocalist for world renowned and Grammy nominated rock band Skillet just announced she is working on a solo project. Ledger signed with Atlantic Records and Hear It Loud.
“From when I started working with Skillet 10 years ago, I was immediately impressed with how vibrant and talented Jen Ledger is,” Pete Ganbarg, President, A&R, Atlantic Records shared with Billboard. “Her voice is so unique – and has become such an identifiable part of Skillet’s sound – that we’ve waited for most of the past decade for the moment when she would finally be ready to release her own music. What she’s been working on with John and Korey Cooper, as well as with Seth Mosley and others, shows that the wait has definitely been worth it.”
Her self-titled debut EP, LEDGER is set to release April 13. Her beloved fan base is on the edge of their sets knowing that this is a huge step and one that will only amplify her career.
“Skillet fans are going to flip when they hear LEDGER. This is what they’ve been asking for for a long time,” said Skillet front man, John Cooper. “Jen has come into her own as a singer, songwriter, and as a front person. We took our time making sure we were releasing the best project we could. The time has finally come and we cannot wait for fans to hear it!”Jen Ledger’s unique vocals and powerful stage presence have given her a distinct role in Skillet since joining as the band’s drummer when she was just 18. Ledger has had the privilege of being a part of Skillet as they have cemented their place as one of the 21st century’s most successful rock bands, selling more than 11 million units worldwide, receiving two GRAMMY® Award nominations and winning a Billboard Music Award for the multi-platinum-certified Awake.With an engaged and ever-growing social media presence, the latest signee for Atlantic Records and Hear It Loud is set to debut her solo endeavor, LEDGER, on April 13.Get Connected with LEDGER:
