About Me

!!! "Road Signs & Rock Shows" out in JAPAN on April 9th 2008 !!!
------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------
The band Mary Jane was founded in 1997 by 4 friends who had met in school. after playing a few local gigs the band made a name for itself and developed a fan-base. The orginal line up was: Thomson (voc-git), Bartl(voc-git), Moritz(bass) and Daniel(drums).After a couple of years of songwriting and playing concerts Mary Jane switched their bass-player. Moritz left the band and Basti joined Mary Jane in 2001. He found his standing in the band pretty quickly and also became the 2nd lead vocalist and main backround vocalist. Ever since, Mary Jane has been known for their two part harmonic singing. In 2002 Mary Jane recorded their first full-length album called "The Art of Fart" at Easy Chicken Studio in Munich. They played numerous shows all over Germany and sold about 1500 copies of their album "The Art of Fart". In 2006 they signed a production contract with Alex-Mario Preu from Soundpark Studios and recorded their 2nd full-length album "Road Signs & Rock Shows" which received applauding reviews in the German music press and some of it's songs were presented on various samplers. "Road Signs & Rock Shows" has sold more than 1000 copies and counting. In Fall 2006 Bartl had to quit Mary Jane due to health concerns and "Hot" took over. Even though Hot is only 17 years old he is an amazingly talented guitar player and a true asset to the band. "Road Signs & Rock Shows" will be released in Japan in early April on Garimpeiro Records. The next recording session is planned for early summer 2008 and the band looks forward to a summer full of open air festivals ...The future looks bright!
