Proudly embracing the moniker “Bravest of introverted entertainers”, St. Louis singer-songwriter Jane Godfrey writes and performs in her self-titled genre of "Urban Campfire Cabaret". Jane writes songs that honor the ordinary, reveal the beauty and little truths in everyday life, and bear witness to her love and understanding of the human condition.

Jane’s songs showcase strong melodies and an eclectic mix of folk, bluegrass, blues and beyond. She possesses both a poetic sensibility and a knack for storytelling with a subtle sense of humor. With songs both personal and universal, Jane moves her audiences and draws them in to share her intimate virtual campfire circle.

Jane released her debut CD, Choose Beauty in 2007. Her 2019 CD Imagine We Have Wings has received international airplay, reaching #9 on the International Folk Charts for Sept. 2020.

In addition to writing and performing, Jane creates videos to accompany her songs.
In 2020, her song video “Breakfast” was featured in the Washington Post‘s online chat, “Chatological Humor with Gene Weingarten”.

In 2022, “Breakfast”, was named by Christine Lavin as one of Christine’s “three most memorable, meaningful songs” along with Judy Collins’s “Secret Gardens” and Frank Sinatra’s “It Was a Very Good Year” by Ervin Drake. “Breakfast” is also included in Christine’s “Seasons Project” compilation (2023).

Jane performs locally and nationally as a solo artist, as half of the duo, “CatBird” with Chicago singer/songwriter, Sue Fink, and occasionally she with her siblings in “The Murphy Family Band”.
