Friends & freaks, we’re launching the vinyl of Mercy. Be there or be []
Playing tonight at The Vanguard from 8.30pm followed by The Green Mohair Suits & The Good Ship.
Sister Jane supports the legendary Mi-Sex this Friday 23 March at The Annandale Hotel. See you there for some fun and dancing… “Com-pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-pu, pu-pu-pu-pu, computer games…” woohoo!!!
Sister Jane’s ‘Be Kind’ featured on ABC TV’s Crownies last night along with Lanie Lane’s ‘What Do I Do’ and Lovetones’ ‘When It Comes’ (which coincidentally was produced and engineered by our very own Liam Judson). Nice one ABC!!! See it here.
Just been reading through some of this year’s press. No harm in giving one’s self a pat on the back so we thought we’d post some here for y’all ;)
The Drum Media, (Album review) 24 May 2011- “…a big bluesy trenchcoat, covered in a funk of dust and ready to be wrapped around your soul…”
“…Mercy is the first full-length from the Blue Mountains exports… It’s a tremendously impressive debut, as well as a glorious album for a road trip… Mercy explores the scope of Sister Jane’s talent as a band, drifting between ambience and rough-riding rockabilly…”
★★★★ – BRAG MAGAZINE INDIE ALBUM OF THE WEEK
The Brag, 25 April 2011- “…The nine songs presented here coalesce to envelop the listener in a richly melodious soundscape that oscillates between rollicking 60s Americana rock’n’roll, hazy psychedelia and haunting mini-anthems… Finding bands that operate at this level is always a joy..”
Rushh Magazine, April edition 2011 - “…There’s something of Buffalo Springfield, a touch of a mellower Justin Townes Earle to what they put out – it’s all Bob Dylan meets the boy in the checked shirt you’ve crushed out on for years.”
★★★★ – BRAG MAGAZINE INDIE ALBUM OF THE WEEK (‘Be Kind’ EP)
The Brag, 7 Feb 2011- “You’ll hear the elegance of well-crafted Byrds songs coupled with the heady, pulsing Americana of a Mark Lanegan and Isobell Campbell collaboration.”
