Two modern-day troubadours brought together by the poetry of two Sylvias. Just Janie and Sig Wilder are banding together with their new double single ‘Sylvia’. Fusing nostalgic Laurel Canyon folk and alt-country grit onstage in a ‘songwriter rounds’ format, they will share the songs and stories of the music that made them. Sig and Janie met earlier this year in Te Whanganui-a-Tara and realized they’d both written songs titled ‘Sylvia’, influenced by poetry collections from Sylvia Plath and Sylvia Legris. After performing together, the duo knew there was something special when their voices merged. Now they’re bringing that magic to the stage.
