Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Rock and Roll Heart

Emily Jane White got her start in music fronting punk and metal bands while in college in Santa Cruz, Calif. Though her current forays garner more comparisons to Cat Power and Mazzy Star than L7 or Bikini Kill, White’s music is still laced with undercurrents — albeit more subtle and artful — of visceral angst and brutal honesty. So goes her newly released record, Ode to Sentience. This Monday, June 25, she’ll be at the Monkey House in Winooski with songwriter Judson Claiborne.
