Jane Getter is one of the most exciting and innovative guitarists and composers on the scene today. Her tenure with legendary organist Jack McDuff provided invaluable training ground as did stints with Joe Lovano, Richie Beirach, Kenny Barron, Jack Wilkins, Slide Hampton, etc.
In the '90s, her composing talents recieved attention when she won the ASCAP Gershwin Award for Music for Theatre or Dance. She then teamed up with writing partner Lenny White (Return To Forever) and co-wrote Urbanator's smooth jazz hit Hopscotch, along with other compositions which were recorded on White's CD's Present Tense and Acoustic Masters. She then joined Michael Urbaniak's band Urbanator and recorded and performed with Kenny Garrett, Tom Browne and Lenny White.

Jane continues to tour and record with many other great artists, including Ursala Dudziak, Regina Carter, Jaimoe (Allman Brothers drummer), etc. and has been featured in Guitar Player Magazine's Sessions section (in August 1999 and January 2000). Her debut CD on Lipstick Records, titled Jane, was released in the fall of 1998 and continues to receive worldwide critical acclaim. Her killer 2nd CD See Jane Run has just been released.
The Jane Getter Band consists of a stellar crew of New York's finest -- Adam Holzman, James Genus, Rocky Bryant, Thulani -- can be seen playing in the New York City area and other spots around the country.
