Welcome to Janet Lenore's Website!
updated October 29, 2006
People who listen to Janet Lenore often recall the humor of
Christine Lavin, the sweetness of Kate Wolf and the bite of Patti Smith - at least that's what
we've been told. Singer/songwriter, Janet Lenore, has been performing regularly throughout the
greater San Francisco Bay Area for the past seven years. She started her songwriting and performance career as a
teenager, performing with her mother as a duo called "Rosenthorn." You can listen to online song samples from her
first CD, Ladies of My Family. Janet is in the studio now working towards a 2007 release of new material featuring the harmonies of
Janet Lenore and Amy Friedricks.
Janet currently has three main band projects. "All About Me" - is a band with eclectic musical tastes.
Featuring the harmonies of Janet Lenore and Amy Friedricks, supported by multi-instrumentalist
Topher Gayle
and bassist Jeff Davis. The band has been together for about three years.
The "Janet Lenore Band" happens when Janet, Jeff and Topher dust off the electric instruments
and hook up with a drummer for some serious rock and roll. A little like the stereotypical "exploding drummer"
syndrome illustrated in "This is Spinal Tap," the band has worked with several drummers. For a long time the band
had Sid Sanchez as a regular drummer. Before and after Sid, we've done gigs with Rich Dorffi, Kenny Gross,
Jesse DaSilva, or Art Sanchez on skins.
"Royan" is a duo - sometimes a trio - devoted to both Irish instrumentals; and modern and traditional folk songs.
Sharon Carl plays fiddle and sings while Janet plays guitar and sings.
