Sudden Epidemic is a hybrid pop punk / indie rock band from Los Alamos, NM. Its members include Jordan Daniel (guitar/vocals), Elise Alde (violin/back up vocals) , Kyle Pilon (percussion), and Alexander Marble (bass guitar). The band describes itself as an encapsulation of rock, pop rock, punk, indie and folk. Most recently they have introduced aspects of post rock and experimental rock (in the vein of bands such as Caspian, This Will Destroy You, and Explosions In The Sky) to create a new style of music they describe as "epic" rock.
Tyler Goodman (guitar), recently left the band to pursue other musical endeavors and was replaced by Elise Alde (who was working with Jordan Daniel on another music project Borderline Angelic). Alde brings a unique flair of violin and female vocals to the Sudden Epidemic sound, and has defined a completely new era in their career.
Sudden Epidemic released their first album, 'The Broadview Life', on March 18, 2005. They are due to release their second album, Would You Risk Your Life For What You Love?, in 2008.
As of May 22, 2008, Sudden Epidemic has officially changed their name to Jane Lane.
We are now Jane Lane, and we're back in Denver, Colorado - ready to introduce the world to a brand new, electrified concoction of both chaos and compassion. It is time to let go of what we once were - a pop punk garage band with undying dreams and nothing to lose - and embrace who we are now.
