Janet Batch and The Four-Bangers

One part Stevie Nicks, two parts Johnny Cash, singer-songwriter Janet Batch hails from New York’s Finger Lakes region.  She fronts a full 4-piece band whose sound is reminiscent of the seventies and eighties country radio she was raised on.  Janet writes songs for the working class, while hinting at the hardscrabble stories of her youth in the Rust Belt.  Her lyrics point to an affinity for poetry and prose and are a sweet surprise to those lucky enough to listen.  Her music has been described as “country with an art degree”.

“As infectious as the music is, the prize of the song (“Got No Idea”) is Janet’s nasal lilt, simultaneously resonant and radiating alluring twing-twang nuances. It’s one of those potent, tantalizing country voices appearing on the music scene once in a great while – easy to listen to, vibrant, and graceful, what some might call ‘posh provincial.’” - Guitar Girl Magazine
