Get to know Haley Dahl, the 24-year-old frontwoman, bandleader, and conductor of the Brooklyn-based 11-piece avant-rock act called Sloppy Jane.
on Essex Street on the Lower East Side that I’ve been meaning to check out, but as this flash of green from my iPhone 6 stares out at me, I start thinking about how I am now desperately jonesing to eat pierogies, or at least something carb-heavy and drenched in grease, at the tiny Ukrainian diner in the East Village. I respond immediately: “Hell yes, very down.”
As of two years ago, Dahl is back in New York, likely for good. The punk three-piece band of yore has since been replaced with a more elaborate setup. At the Sloppy Jane show I went to back in April—during Dahl’s month-long residency at Baby’s All Right in Williamsburg, Brooklyn—it felt like there were a million people onstage, including, but not limited to, multiple backup vocalists, a string section, and two separate percussionists.
I wanted to make music that sounded like Hole and Marilyn Manson, then I got really into some of the weirder Beach Boys stuff. There was a big moment for me when my boyfriend in high school made this CD of Roy Orbison’s greatest hits, and I listened to it after we broke up, when I was in high school.
The dancing and the stuff that I do onstage is also conducting my bandmates. It’s cool that it all serves the same function, which is both to communicate to my band what is happening and to communicate to the audience what the band is doing. We played places with bad sound for so long. A lot of what we did wouldn’t come across correctly, so having a very animated and percussive stage presence helps people’s eyes register what they maybe can’t hear.
