Biography

Jane’s Party’s output over the past decade-plus showcases a sonic palette even most established bands would beg for. Their 2011 self-titled EP and 2013 sophomore full-length, Hot Noise, built on the breezy folk-rock base of The Garage Sessions with more energy, electricity, and eclecticism. 2016’s Tunnel Visions pushed further into electro-pop territory with vibe-heavy textures that could tempt anyone onto a dancefloor while 2019’s Casual Island welcomed a diverse group of guest artists for some compelling collaborations rooted in polished pop rock with hooks for days. But while Jane’s Party has experimented with different sounds and styles, influences and eras, the sonic identity that first emerged with The Garage Sessions has remained: simple-but-substantial melodies, rich, multi-part harmonies, and a mastery of musical dynamism. Their effortless penchant for catchy pop melodies rich with substance has made them sought-after for feature spots and syncs across pretty much every creative medium. They’ve had songs placed in films and series like Saving Hope, Burden of Truth, Kim’s Convenience, and Hockey Night in Canada; been commissioned for custom compositions for popular TV and podcast networks; and earned impressive engagement numbers across their various social media channels – including over 50 million streams of viral hit “Daydream”.

The quartet’s first feature-length musical special, 2020’s The Marshmallow Revue, was their catalyst to testing the
feasibility of outdoor recording. With this variety show, JP invited fans into their authentic world with music, humour and
their true personalities. Sutton described 2021’s Wild In The Woods as “part musical experiment, part wilderness therapy,
and a whole ton of fun. This was filmed during a time of take out food, CP24 news updates, and virtual rock and roll. ‘Wild
in the Woods’ brings our show to the world’s best stage: nature.” They were joined by artists Ewan Currie, Danica, Tally
Ferraro, Skye Wallace and Nick Rose. 2022’s Wild In The Woods 2 brought on Shad, pHoenix, Tom Moffett, Carolina East,
and Greg Keelor of Blue Rodeo.

They’ve shared stages with the likes of Arkells, Tokyo Police Club, LIGHTS, Lord Huron, Manic Street Preachers, and were even hand-picked to open two European tours for BRITs Critics Choice winner Tom Odell. That’s in addition to official slots
at dozens of taste-making music festivals on multiple continents. Fittingly, that live, four-on-the-floor energy is what drives
their latest studio album, 2022’s Live Again, and now the band – not to mention their ever-growing following – relish the
opportunity to once again be reciprocating some love in live performance.

Jane’s Party was hand selected to join the Symphonic Distribution roster when the American independent music distribution and marketing company made their official launch in the Canadian market, now based in Montreal. The seasoned band will only stop when that feeling starts to fade, but Jane’s Party just keeps getting better while remaining
consistent, compelling, and true to their original goal of sharing their songs with the world. And if their latest output is any
indication, they’re still having a damn good time doing it.
