Band Bio:

DareDevil Jane emerged in San Diego in the beginning of 2005. They are a relentless quintet that supplies a dominant sound of vibrant rock and timeworn guitar anthems. DDJ has quickly managed to bring back the raw state of rock. Comprised of Adrian Gunner, Micah and Matt Anderson, Chris Light, and Chris OBrien, there is something oddly refreshing about their dynamic and gritty, unique sound.

DareDevil Jane quickly broke beyond the barriers of their hometown. They have toured with Unwritten Law, opened for Louie the 14th, and are opening for Angels and Airwaves on their debut tour.

Everything just seemed to click from early on. They all had the same vision, and within a year were able to record their first album, Method to the Madness. DDJs debut album was produced by Tommy Andrews, and Niko Bolis, best known for his work with Neil Young and Mick Jagger. Method to the Madness is set to make a solid entry to store shelves this Summer.

It is without a doubt that DareDevil Janes raw, innovative sound is absolutely captivating, and it might just be what weve all been missing for the last decade.

Sound best described as:

Rock and Roll!

Influences:

Everything from Guns N Roses to Miles Davis

Ultimate goal as a band:

Tour the world, put out a bunch of good albums, longevity, and to be one of the bands that brings rock and roll back to where it should be.

Best Gig:

San Francisco with Angels and Airwaves

image

Worst Gig:

Some shithole in Hollywood. I cant remember the name.

Dream tour:

If Guns N Roses got back together, Bonem rose from the dead, and the three of us went out together

What sets your band apart from other bands of today?

We’re a real rock and roll band. i think that most of the bands that are playing rock music are half assing it. They’re taking some of the rock and roll elements but holding on to the pop punk radio stuff that has killed rock and roll. We write songs for ourselves, shit that we care about and has meaning to us. If you turn on the radio today most of the singers all sound the same. I think that we have set ourselves apart in that aspect.

What are your thoughts on the current music industry?:

The radio sucks, there’s no music on Mtv, and people like Ashlee Simpson are being handed awards. It’s doing great!

MySpace-blessing or curse?:

For us it’s been a blessing.
