"Erupting on the scene just a few months ago, January Jane already has a kick-ass EP and a legion of loyal, young fans. Their sound brings with it a full range of material, from seductive ballads to monster metal. You heard it here first... January Jane is on the express track straight to the top." - - Metal Edge Magazine
"With songs of the quality of ‘Champagne Suicide’ and the ballad-like title track ‘No More Last Times’ it looks like they will have a bright future ahead of them. Talking of looks, the band members all look like they could be on the books of a modelling agency which I am sure will do them no harm whatsoever. The band have a new album about to be released and if they can maintain the songwriting quality contained on the EP then it should be well worth tracking down." - - David Wilson, Get Ready To Rock
"I'm really excited about January Jane, they have delivered a strong debut that holds up all the way through... it sounds creative and full of energy and passion, a good quality release and quite possibly one of the best new bands of 2012, can't wait for the full album." - - Nicky Baldrian , Fireworks Magazine

Bio
New York City-based alt/indie-rock band, January Jane, announces the release of their new album this fall 2015. Their song “Take the Lions On,” will be the first single to drop from the new release. The track was produced by Matt Pinfield and engineer John Bender, who worked on Breaking Benjamin's top-charting Billboard release Dark Before Dawn. The aim of the track, according to the band, is to take the listener on a journey of overcoming obstacles in life. An uplifting call to arms, the song was inspired by the band’s own struggles with failed relationships, dealing with a lack of fulfillment and ultimately taking responsibility for your own actions.
The band’s members include Pat Via (vocals), Mitchell C. Mitchell (guitar), Peter Scialla (keyboards), Cody Darbe (bass) and Andre Jevnik (drums). Via and Mitchell met at a gallery opening on a street called “Jane” one January day. They planned to meet up and jam and, just like that, the band was formed. Shortly after, Scialla, Darbe and Jevnik joined to round out the line-up. In 2014, the band signed with Whiskey Vinyl Records and is noted for their straight-forward hard rock sound, incorporating synths and other elements, which comprise their signature sound.
The band recently headlined a brand new concert series, called Whiskey Vinyl Presents. January Jane was the headline of the debut event at the Highline Ballroom on July 16th. The single, “Take the Lions On,” has been recently released - make sure to stay up to date by checking out their website, JanuaryJane.com.
