Description:

A Window & A Mirror is a complete collection of Joan of Arc?s seminal material from their debut in 1996 through 2002 (their ?Jade Tree years?). For nearly a quarter century, Joan of Arc maintained a fluid lineup that drew from a multitude of subversive Chicago music communities. The group?s obdurate dedication to shape-shifting reinvention charmed and frustrated audiences in equal measure, often simultaneously. What they produced resists all attempts at easy summary. Only one person, band-leader Tim Kinsella, remained in Joan of Arc from its 1996 debut to its final days in 2020, however every musician and behind-the-scenes collaborator that played a role in Joan of Arc (a number that exceeds 100) influenced the band?s direction and character. Joan of Arc is the result of Tim's work with a community of radical artists who came to him from the underground, or were found there after he sought them out to engage in strange and memorable experiments in sound. No two Joan of Arc albums sound identical, but listening closely to this work we begin to trace out the footprint of ideas that took root on one LP and blossomed into the next. With A Window & A Mirror, we tell part of the story and resurrect the early phase of the group?s evolution. Excavated from Kinsella?s grandmother?s basement, the 132-page hardbound book collects his journals, photos, and essays written in real time as these albums came together, and includes a long lost Joan of Arc artifact: Red Blue Yellow, a rare recording captured at a notorious show where Kinsella and his co-conspirators would convene for a one-time performance under the name Red Blue Yellow, following the demise of Kinsella?s pioneering emo band Cap?n?Jazz. Red Blue Yellow promptly broke up and became Joan of Arc. Red Blue Yellow is the missing link between Cap?n?Jazz and Joan of Arc and is only now seeing the light of day. Also included in this collection is access to the ?Joan of Archive,? a digital collection of literally hundreds of demo-tapes, live recordings, and musical
