This friday on Fancy New Band we were very lucky to welcome in Just Janie Into the studio!
Just Janie is a Ōtutahi based indie-folk musician who has just realesed her debut album 'Mythology of the Girls'. During the segemt Janie explained that this is a concept album, "A reaction to nostalgia through a modern lens, the album pays homage to the folk scene of the late sixties and early seventies and deconstructs the rose tinted perspective for the era where women faced a myriad of societal limitations."
The songs Janie has written for this album are so well thought out and magical, this is a Fancy New Band you dont want to miss !
