Jonathan's second Post-Camper Van Beethoven band, an Alt-rock pop trio playing that good old rock music about sex and drugs.
Editorial review
Shifting gears from the wild eclecticism which typified his previous project Hieronymus Firebrain, with his new band Jack & Jill, Jonathan Segel opts for a more stripped-down alt-rock approach. Chill and Shrill rarely deviates from a strict guitar-bass-drums formula, although Segel is simply too eccentric a performer to settle for a generic sound -- his raw guitar leads are delivered with genuine passion, and his songs are consistently heartfelt and clever. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
After Hieronymus Firebrain, Jonathan Segel (aka Dr. Firebrain) stripped down and got himself what the call in the business a "chick bass player." Not just any chick, mind you... Jane Thompson (aka Jill) was a psychology grad student with a black belt in an obscure martial art. She kept the boys in line and away from complex time changes and obsequious lyrics. This back to basics approach yielded "Chill and Shrill", a little reconstructed deconstructionist post-post-modern neo-retro driving-yet-melodic alternative power pop of a record. Spells blast-off for Mr. and Mrs. Front Porch America... you watch out there... stop playing volleyball on the freeway...
A little reconstructed deconstructionist post-post-modern neo-retro driving-yet-melodic alternative power pop. Spells blast-off for Mr. and Mrs. Front Porch America.
A powerful trio based in the San Francisco Bay Area, J&J recorded two CDs, "Chill and Shrill" (1995) and "Fancy Birdhouse" (1997). They mean everything that they say.
