Jana Pochop

What does the desert sound like? For her self-produced EP Powerlines (March 25), Jana Pochop literally captured it—crawling across the floors of Georgia O’Keeffe’s Abiquiu studio to record its unique reverberations.

A Berklee NYC grad with a poet’s heart now based in Albuquerque, Jana fuses the storytelling of Mary Chapin Carpenter and Kathleen Edwards with the innovative production of Imogen Heap. Featuring musical collaborations with Don Dixon (R.E.M.) and Sean Hutchinson (Bleachers), Powerlines is a rich, haunting tapestry of indie-folk-pop that maps the distance between Brooklyn’s urban energy and the expansive New Mexican sky. Perfect for fans of introspective lyrics and boundary pushing production.
