Spiritus

Start spreading the news - New York's hottest punk-blues collective are back in business. If you didn't catch them first time round, then it's high time you got to know Jane Lee Hooker better. Individually, the five members have pedigree to burn, turning heads and tearing up stages in seminal bands from Nashville Pussy to Bad Wizard. But when Dana 'Danger' Athens (vocals), Hail Mary Z (bass), Melissa 'Cool Whip' Houston (drums), Tracy 'High Top' (guitar) and Tina 'T Bone' Gorin (guitar) hooked up in 2012, they swore a blood pact to take Jane Lee Hooker all the way. "We're a gang," say the lineup. "We're a family."
