A multi-faceted musical presence, English singer, songwriter, guitarist, serial collaborator, and record label head Jane Weaver has performed both solo and with the groups Kill Laura and Misty Dixon (retro-kissed indie pop). Weaver released five singles with Kill Laura between 1993 and 1996 before embarking on a solo career, issuing her debut EP, Like an Aspen Leaf, in 2001. She formed Misty Dixon the following year (the same year she founded her own Bird Records, an imprint of Finders Keepers) and released Iced to Mode in 2003. Her sophomore outing, Seven Day Smile, arrived in 2006, followed by a string of acclaimed full-lengths, including Cherlokalate in 2007, The Fallen by Watchbird in 2010, the Krautrock-infused The Silver Globe in 2014, and 2017's Modern Kosmology. ~ James Christopher Monger
