The spirit of Jolliff rings volumes in a city known for it’s secular nature. That factor never stopped the faithful indie rock of Jolliff from writing powerful songs to lift your outlook. The harmonic choruses and lively lyrics create positivity and the slow grooving bass lines behind a clean, electric guitar make powerful melodies that are easy on the listener. Jolliff is a band that was crafted by four friends who all resided in the upstairs of a Lutheran Church and began writing music inspired by contemporary folk musicians such as Andrew Bird. This combined with their local attitudes results in well-crafted guitar driven, joyful anthems. Jolliff is holding this month’s residency at the White Eagle, with this Monday night being the last show. – Colin Hudson
