Jane Lee Hooker

Jane Lee Hooker isn’t the child of blues boogie story John Lee Hooker. Jane Lee Hooker is definitely a fresh York City-based quintet intention on carrying within the overamplified customs of electrical blues.

Vocalist Dana “Risk” Athens, guitarist Tracy Hightop, guitarist Tina “T-Bone” Gorin, bassist Hail Mary Z, and drummer Melissa “Great Whip” Houston created Jane Lee Hooker in 2013. Ahead of JLH, both guitarists had been bandmates in Helldorado, as soon as that music group parted methods, Gorin spent amount of time in Poor Wizard and Hightop visited Nashville Pussy. Once those gigs concluded, the set made a decision to reunite and 1st earned Hail Mary Z, after that Houston and Athens. More than the next couple of years, they gigged frequently, not merely in N.Con.C. but away in California and in Tx, earning a status that brought them to talk about bills with several rock & move vets, like the Loss of life Valley Ladies and Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes. In 2015, Jane Lee Hooker authorized with Ruf Information and then shipped their debut, No B!, in the springtime of 2016.
