Jane Weaver
Shimmering cosmic pop that blends motorik rhythms with vintage analog synths. A hypnotic, kaleidoscopic journey for late-night thinkers and stargazers.

Jane Weaver is a pivotal figure in the UK independent scene, evolving from her Britpop roots with Kill Laura and the folktronica of Misty Dixon into a sophisticated architect of neo-psychedelia. Her solo career is defined by a deep engagement with vintage technology, specifically analog synthesizers and modular systems, which she uses to create a 'cosmic' pop aesthetic.
Her work often draws comparisons to Stereolab and Broadcast due to her use of motorik rhythms and 1960s/70s experimental textures, yet she maintains a distinct singer-songwriter core. Weaver's label, Bird Records, has been instrumental in championing female-led folk and experimental music, further cementing her role as a cultural curator. Critical consensus highlights her 2014 breakthrough 'The Silver Globe' and 2021's 'Flock' as high-water marks where her avant-garde tendencies and pop craftsmanship perfectly align. Her influence extends through the Manchester scene and into the broader global psych-pop community.
