GRUNDY CENTER - Local band Janey and the Growlerz will be performing downtown this Thursday, July 18th, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., as part of the monthly Rock Around the Clock Tower Car Cruise and Concert series hosted by the Grundy Center Chamber-Main Street organization.
 
An eclectic mix of musical backgrounds, Janey and the Growlerz is a five-person group that plays a wide range of music from country to disco.
 
“We all come from different backgrounds when it comes to music we grew up listening to, and we try to incorporate some of all of our tastes when it comes to expanding our repertoire,” said band member Joel Love. “Diversity is what makes us stand out. We like to think of ourselves as a ‘live Spotify.’ We’ll play rock, country, blues, funk, and disco to name a few, and we always make an effort to play to the tastes of our audience.”
 
Band members include: Blake Kelley, Rod Holke-Farnam, Jon Love, Joel Love and Janey Potter. Blake Kelley is the youngest member of the band at 21 years of age. He grew up listening to rock and pop. He began playing drums with the school band in the 5th grade. He received his first drum set at the age of 13 and became involved with the worship band at Orchard Hill Church shortly after. He joined Janey and the Growlerz for their 3rd gig and has stuck around ever since.
