Linda Ann Jordan has a new band! More on that, in a sec, but meanwhile: Chad and Jeff welcomed Linda Ann Jordan to the bar to chat about her origins as a songwriter, poet, and also visual artist (watercolor paintings!). Linda was in a fantastic lo-fi indie-rock group known as Best Exes during a good chunk of the latter 2010s, but she's been a fan and ardent supporter of the local music scene for years, including helping to coordinate several large-scale live music events, notably for nonprofits like the Seraphine Collective!
ALSO: Linda also has a new band called Pretty Island, which grew out of her flurry of songwriting from the last five years, featuring Lauren Milia and Dina Bankole! They are playing their first show Sunday night at the Polka Dot bar in Hamtramck, with Fred Thomas!
Featured songs:
Best Exes: "Rock 'n' Roll Liquor Store" "Best Exes" "Walk Me To The Bar"
Drunken Barn Dance: "Last Desperate Stand of the Last Fair Man"
Frontier Ruckus: "Sitcom Afterlife"
