Janet May: Lessons To Learn

By Pete Voelker

Direct but detailed, Janet May’s debut single “Lessons to Learn” can only be described as rock poetry. Driven by May’s vocals, set over a steady strum of guitar and a developing electronic throb, the track does not shy away from substantial lyrical topics. May spent time as a backup singer for Bombay Bicycle Club, Alex Winston and others. With this song, and the Pete Voelker-directed music video, she lets her full voice be heard.
