…Bio & Pics Coming Soon…

On her premier solo-album, Janet combines old world conviction with new world sentiment in “Better Now”, a journey of self discovery for the everyday jungle monkey trapped in the big, scary world of uncertainty and self-doubt. Combining driving beats, melodic guitars and dreamy rock instrumentation with sweet vocal harmony, the music is relaxing while pragmatic, uplifting and whimsical.

The album opens up retrospectively (March of Time), journeys into celebration of youth (Better Now) and ancestry (You are a Child, Creation), while it searches for the strength of will (Write or Die, Standard Lame) and ultimately attains acceptance and faith (Roger That).

A testament to her upbringing in Chicago as a first generation Filipino-American, Janet’s debut speaks to the hearts of many who have left everything behind to chase impossible dreams of happiness. Inspired by music and poetry from the hearts and souls of the world’s hopeful underdogs, “Better Now” takes you back to that moment in your childhood when life made perfect sense and reminds you to hang on to that memory forever.

Shifting gears into uncharted territory, Janet has combined efforts in the studio w/ fellow musician Brian “Bjak” Cullen to create Velophone, a new project showcasing the vocal, songwriting and instrumental of this charismatic duo. Their breadth of their work together is prolific in direction and upcoming works will soon see release on RealDEEP Recordings.
