JANA HUNTER KICKS OFF TOUR

Hot on the heels of her ACES new LP, Jana Hunter has the van all packed up for a spring in the states and across the ocean, starting tomorrow in the city that made The Wire famous, Baltimore MD. Joining her for the first, passport-free leg of her travels is none other than fellow Hunter John, who we are told has already been involved in significant shenanigans, including both ripped pants and backwards underwear. into it. John is quoted as saying simply that Baltimore is "crazy" and Jana has written to assure us that should any press reports emerge claiming she has placed Raisinettes into someones bed that this is absolutely false.

She also tells us that she talked with Girl Talk after a show of his the other night about a bit of the message board drama that ensued after his last appearance here and has concluded that minors are "sleazy creatures." Indeed.

Never one to gather too much moss, Jana will be hitting up the west coast in the month of June, and will add Ray Raposa (Castanets) and Yoni Kifle to her ensemble. Not enough? Well, September will have her and John McCauley tearing a terrible trail of terror through the UK, Germany, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland.
