Description:

Detroit-born Nashville-based guitarist and songwriter Olivia Jean worked as a hairstylist and makeup artist before she was able to make music full-time (Mariana Timony, Bandcamp Daily.) She first cut her teeth as a Third Man Records studio musician, then with the garage-goth band, The Black Belles. She released her debut solo record of “bubblegum garage” Bathtub Love Killings in 2014, which had some heartache, revenge, and a bit of delightfully dark strangeness to it. Now with her latest, 2019's Night Owl, in which she had the controlling interest as producer, there are unavoidable undercurrents of surf rock dripping from nearly every song. The ‘weird girl …who cut class to play surf guitar alone in her room’ (Bandcamp Daily - and have you seen her ASMR Makeover video?), Olivia Jean, joins us with her mighty band to play songs from this latest record, in-studio. - Caryn Havlik
