PRESS
Fodor had been concert buddies with Mordoh for a few years. After she interviewed Mordoh on her music industry podcast, “I Love Music,” she and Sheppard started discussing the idea of documenting the Dancing Man’s life as a fan.
“We thought, ‘Let’s start off doing a character piece about Howard and his concert addiction,’” Fodor says. Then, as venues shuttered post-COVID and nightlife died, they knew they had to document Mordoh’s withdrawal and the ways he coped.
We’ve been writing about Jen Fodor for a couple of years now. She’s a force of nature, and has certainly taken hold of Hollywood with two hands – becoming not just a triple threat but one to beat all.
Jen doesn’t limit herself to one genre either. She’s written songs across the range, including rock, pop, and country, and she’s stepped up to the mic in her latest single, ‘Love Struck Baby’, showing that she is a talented vocalist as well as all her other skills.
Singer-songwriter Jen Fodor talks about her career in film, music, the unusual path to songwriting, and her latest single Love Struck Baby.
I’ve been an artist manager for 10+ years and about 2 years ago I started having the desire to write my own songs. I wondered, after so many years on the business side, did I have what it takes? I shared my song idea with some really supportive friends and “Saturday” was born.

What has been the proudest moment of your career so far?
One of the greatest gifts of being a Producer, Podcaster and Artist Manager is getting to strategize with and support people where they are in their journey. I love to make things happen and to connect people with each other. When things align, it’s the best reward.
