The Go Janes

Healing music, light as a feather, hits you like a rock.
The members of the Go Janes performed for nearly four decades before creating a trio together, long enough to express what we’ve learned with tender and wise hearts: that anything worthwhile takes patience and calm. Attributes not exactly in high demand in our fast and highly distractible times, but a respite if you’ll take it.

Two members of the acclaimed satirical trio Uncle Bonsai, the artistic director of the consistently sold-out Wintergrass Festival, local activists and soloists, educators and songwriters make up the Go Janes. It’s not their first rodeo.

“What the McGarrigles are to Toronto, the Go Janes are to the Pacific Northwest.”
~ Joel Tepp, musician

Lush female harmonies, harp-like ukuleles, and acoustic guitar support the Go Janes’ disarmingly gracious look at life in all its light and darkness (and there is often a choice between the two). Humor is sustenance, as are lessons of love learned over generous amounts of time. 

“Raconteurs, observers of life, trio with great harmony vocals – the Go Janes’ smart songs and tight sound are worth hearing over and over again.”
~ Cathy Fink & Marcy Marxer, TWO-TIME GRAMMY® Award Winners

We’re thrilled to release our first album. We think it is beautiful. We created the kind of music we’d like to hear, and hope that others feel the same. Listen and enjoy! And thanks for buying and recommending our music to others. Your support means the world to us.
