In 2006, Jane relinquished most of her possessions – including her home and her musical instruments – and changed her name to “Issa”. “I felt I had to change or die,” she says. After three years of spartan living, she re-assumed the name “Jane Siberry” and returned to international touring and recording. Her latest studio recording, tentatively entitled “Consider The Lily”, is scheduled for release this year. ____________________________________________________________ Sounds Simple - Bottle Hearts Thursday, February 18 at 7 PM Wellington Eatery 1008 Wellington Street West, Ottawa, Ontario K1Y 2Y1 Bottle Hearts are going to share some of their newest music with you!

Yet, listening to artists like Bare Naked Ladies and Tragically Hip and playing alongside with lots of Canadian musicians had somewhat limited effect on him. Therefore Russian folk and sadness of cold Siberian winters are vividly present in his songs, just like European Rock traditions. So, come in for that crazy mix of Folk, Rock, Reggie and Russian chanson for the night of fun and strong emotions.
