Mind Our Music presents: Liza Jane, Paul Bellantoni, and Karen Chase. May 21st at the Analog.

ABOUT LIZA JANE

Liza Jane is an emotive young singer-songwriter from Key West, Florida, with a booming, sultry, soulful voice that makes her music vulnerable and powerful at the same time. At the age of 2, Liza Jane told her parents, “I came here to sing”. She began training and competing and has been singing regularly ever since. An award-winning soprano singer-songwriter, Liza Jane has wowed audiences across America and Europe with her phenomenal vocal ability and rock-opera style.

While attending the Classical Voice program at Belmont University in Nashville, Liza Jane simultaneously began composing more confessional alt-pop ballads rooted in her own feelings and experiences. Her debut single, “People These Days” garnered the attention of press and established curators alike, featured on Spotify editorial playlist “New Music Nashville”. Now residing in Los Angeles, Liza Jane has been releasing works that are more in tune with who she is and what she wants to communicate as an artist.

Her debut EP, Unbreakable, speaks to overcoming adversity to break through to the other side of our darkest moments. It takes us through the range of emotions from toxic relationships to our own toxic thoughts and finding the strength to carry on. With this release, Liza Jane shows us that we can all strive to be unbreakable.

ABOUT PAUL BELLANTONI

Paul writes about the twists and turns we go through in life with a forlorn and soulful, hope-driven message that is blended with high energy rock.

Paul began to compose his first songs in the mid-to-late Nineties, taking inspiration from strong female artists, such as Tori Amos and Ani Difranco, classic icons of rock, and soulful chanteuses of the past. Paul credits them all as having paved the way to his lyrics and eclectic writing style.

His songs are powerful, heartfelt stories, with performance to match. From broken-hearted blues ballads and rock anthems, to Americana storytelling with a message of a better tomorrow. Paul Bellantoni will be releasing his newest single, New Orleans-influenced "Kings & Fools" on June 17th.

ABOUT KALEN CHASE

Kalen Chase is a rare breed. Born in Southern California and growing up in Washington State, his love of music has led him down many untraditional paths. From opera training, to teaching at Musicians Institute in Los Angeles, to touring with Korn and fronting the band Vimic with Joey Jordison of Slipknot. Kalen has worked extensively in the studio providing backing vocals for artists including 10 Years, Pop Evil, Dragonforce and singing on the Lego Batman movie soundtrack.

Now, Kalen has embarked on a new path, building upon his singer-songwriter roots, hard rock persona, and production experience to create a sound of his own. His contagious energy and stage presence captivates the room. His percussive delivery and sweet but cynical lyrics naturally draw an audience to join in harmony. Kalen will be releasing his debut solo album, “Sweet” in 2022, featuring special guests such as Brian Viglione (Dresden Dolls, NIN, Violent Femmes) and Ray Luzier (Korn) on drums.
