MNspin Artist of the Week: Bye Bye Banshee

September 21, 2023 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm

Bye Bye Banshee is the side project of Minnesota songwriter and poet, Jezebel Jones, and features a line-up of outstanding twin cities musicians. Original songs—an eclectic mix of jazz/blues, folk, classical and gothic rock—are stitched together with spoken word pieces,  inviting listeners to contemplate death and grief in a way that connects us with each other and with nature. 

Bye Bye Banshee’s first EP–Deathfolk Magic–was recorded, mixed and mastered by Tom Garneau (Prince, Sting) and released to the public on October 5, 2018. Jim Walsh says, “This new vehicle for Minneapolis songwriter Jezebel Jones is an ancient-sounding shot of swampy blues (“If I Die In My Dreams”) and witchy folk-rock (“Skull Rattles”) that makes for an extremely haunting trip into the afterlife via song.”

MNspin is an online collection of Minnesota music curated by local experts, brought to you by Hennepin County Library and the Friends of the Hennepin County Library. The collection features hundreds of selected albums by Minnesota artists of all genres. Minnesota artists gain exposure, and music lovers can explore the rich diversity of the local music scene and discover new favorite artists and bands. Music is available to freely stream or download here: hclib.musicat.co/.
