Hosted by Mike Murray and his newly formed "Six String Sessions" series focusing on guitar-forward original music projects, Jessica Stuart is excited for the release of her first single in 5 years, "Let's Not Try So Hard", celebrated in a live concert with her fab trio (Mike Shapinko - bass, Vince Reel - drums).

Originally written on a ukulele in the passenger seat of a car ride from Montreal to Toronto, "Let's Not Try So Hard" dares listeners to really tune in and join the "slow music" revolution.  Stuart's unusually honest, unmanicured studio performance (with lead vocal & guitar recorded in a full take live-off-the-floor) sets up the question of how to find the magic balance that bridges the demands of the "pocket computer" era with our ability to know when to fall back from our plans, and ride the wave of life happening around us.
