Joan Smith & the Jane Does (Toronto) are leaving an indelible mark on Canada’s rock scene. Praised by Great Dark Wonder for their authentic hard rock sound, they’ve quickly earned a place in the alt rock landscape. Their debut album, “Do Me Some Harm” (October 2023), was produced by band member Tom Juhas and mixed by Alain Johannes (Queens of the Stone Age, Them Crooked Vultures).Smith, she of “towering pipes and a remarkable dirty guitar tone” (torontomusicreviews.com), and guitarist/producer Tom Juhas form the Jane Does – a female fronted dance rock machine with cutting vocals that amp up to the edge of sanity, pulsing rock beats and relentless guitars which remind noted radio personality and music historian Jeff Woods of ‘Queens of the Stone Age and Stevie Nicks’. That comparison is no coincidence – The Jane Does packed Toronto’s Legendary Horseshoe Tavern performing QOTSA’s ‘Songs for the Deaf’ in its entirety, and their work with Alain Johannes on “Do Me Some Harm” exemplifies this influence.
Material Objects (Ithaca) Conceived in 2019, Material Objects operates in trio formation with songs that come together through improvisation before coalescing into structured harmony. With a foundation of textured and rounded rhythm, dense and propulsive bass and atmospheric guitars, Material Objects exist in that sweet spot of indie rock, psychedelic and post-punk with a rich melodic edge.
