Jane Woodman is a San Francisco based DIY musician and multimedia artist. With a sound firmly grounded in Apocalyptic Romanticism, Post-Punk, and Shoegaze over a throbbing industrial rhythm bed, her music videos are sometimes invaded by animated supernatural urban heroes. Lush, distorted, and cerebral, the live performances utilize prerecorded tracks to stay true to that aesthetic. The tracks act as a supplement to an analog-heavy mix of vocals, guitars, pedals, and projections.
