MJ and Caroline are going West! Join us at Art House for a night of friendship, harmony, and rock & roll!MJ Upstairs was obsessed with GarageBand as a kid. The immersive process of layering her voice into angsty demos on the family computer led her first to choir freakdom, then to Philadelphia. Her mesmerizing blend of lush vocals, distorted guitars, and hypnotic rhythmic loops expanded beyond basement shows into releases like Exhibitionist, This is About You, and b sides. Her sophomore album, Like a Stain, Pink, was recorded between Good Listeners in Philly and the floor of her Brooklyn bedroom. Intimate, anthemic, poetic, all messed up. MJ has carved herself a lyrical niche.
If she isn't on stage or wrapped up in various scoring projects, MJ can be found preparing for her upcoming west coast tour. Keep up at mjupstairs.com
