Coming To Your Local Bandstand: Jana Hunter

Itinerant and seemingly haunted singer/songwriter Jana Hunter is touring the Mid-Atlantic and New England next month, still supporting her 2005 sort-of best of Blank Unstaring Heirs Of Doom. The set, which we called "one of the more varied and intriguing submissions we received this [well, last] fall," was released in October 2005; we reviewed the set at World Of Sound here. Earlier this year Texas-based Hunter toured by sailboat, believe it or not, until the vessel hit a buoy in the Chesapeake Bay. After satisfying the tour dates below Ms. Hunter plans to record her sophomore set for Gnomonsong; she recently finished writing and pre-production for the set. You can stream tunes from Blank Unstaring Heirs Of Doom at Hunter's MySpace domicile here.
