Jane & The Pretty Pleases
*EP and Video Release Show*
The music of Jane Thatcher is a powerful array of folk rock and americana, crossing styles and sounds with the likes of Fleetwood Mac, Natalie Merchant, and 10,000 Maniacs. With one taste of her chocolate-flavored voice, foot-stomping rhythms and heartfelt lullabies, you'll see why she continues to stir the souls of her listeners.
Originally from Salt Lake City, Jane's successes have continued to spread like wildfire since landing in Chicago. Highlights include the large Widow's Peak Music Festival, and shows at prominent venues such as Lincoln Hall and Bottom Lounge. A professionally shot music video for "Good Reasons" and a brand new full length on CAUDog Records, "Poundin' a Heartbeat" round out recent achievements.
Considering that all this has occurred within the last year and a half, it is safe to say Jane Thatcher has garnered a whirlwind of support, and she won't be slowing down anytime soon. Her guitar and original music is an adventure in high spirits and positive energy.
About
As a solo performer Jane Thatcher is enchanting, and easily captivates the crowd with her intimate songwriting and connection with the audience. In addition, she has really stacked the deck for her music career, forging a partnership with a band of exquisitely talented musicians. Jane's high-octane group, The Steadfast Acrobats, whom appear on "Poundin' a Heartbeat", offer a solid retro-rock pulse that creates a polished, true Americana sound for the masses.
As a social worker in Chicago working with disenfranchised people, families, and children, Jane observes a different perspective of the world we all live in, and she strives each and every day to make a difference. As a singer-songwriter initially inspired by Jewel, as well as other artists of the 60′s and 70′s who had a passion for social change, Jane Thatcher sees music as art that allows people to experience a new reality.

Machine Gun Mojo
Machinegun Mojo is a folk rock, country influenced, Americana band from Chicago that likes jazz, bluegrass, and rock and roll. They are nearly impossible to classify into one genre, but they easily blend influences from all walks of American music into one tightly composed unique sound.
Liza Day
Liza Day and the Northbound Trestle Singers are a 5-piece Midwest Americana band rooted in Chicago's young, alternative-country tradition. The band was founded in 2008, by singer/song-writer and Wisconsin native, Liza Day, a graduate and former artist in residence of The Contemporary Music Center in Martha's Vineyard, MA. Liza, 27, leads the band with a voice unforgettably warm and pure, skillfully combined with a performance as vulnerable and sincere as the songs themselves. The band's musical style is described as straight-forward classic country, layered with a raw, untidy, rockabilly vibe.
In August, 2009, they released their debut album entitled, Liza Day and the Northbound Trestle Singers, recorded and produced in Chicago. Since then, the band has completed several successful tours on the east coast and in the Midwest. In home-base Chicago, they continue to play many well-known local venues including; Schuba's, Fitzgerald's, Bottom Lounge, and recently opened for national touring artist Sahara Smith. Before All Turns Grey, from their debut album was recently chosen as part of the score for the documentary, Out of Respect, directed by award winning film-maker, Tess Gallum.
