The Real Jane Martin

About Me

The Real Jane Martin is an acoustic rock duo from Chicago, IL. Musician-songwriters Mark Burns and Allen Rein, friends since their days together at Actors Theatre of Louisville, formed TRJM in 2006. They can be seen playing all over Chicago, from rock clubs to acoustic coffee houses. Allen is a spotlight-loving singer while lead-guitarist Mark would be happiest performing with a bag over his head.
They haven't broken up. Yet.
Simple Math is TRJM's debut studio album, chronicling the band’s first two years of songwriting in eight catchy, heartfelt tunes.
