The Braided Janes are one of the best Latin alternative bands in Chicago. Their song “Mi Canto” was written during one of the band’s many improv sessions and mixes eclectic global sounds with Rodriguez’s powerful vocals and a sexy electronica beat. It’s a bold and genre-bending statement.
- The Advocate
"A highlight was a thrilling performance by The Braided Janes which started a wild dance melee with a set of older songs from their debut Despierta and a hearty helping of the just released Renacer CD. "
- Windy City Times

"Whether addressing politics surrounding immigration or speaking in solidarity with victims of inhumane treatment, artists like The Braided Janes... did not hold back taking it to another level"
- NPR Music World Cafe
"Post-punk, alternative rock wrapped in a dark fringe... That is The Braided Janes, and so much more! Theirs is a music of revolution and celebration. Their fans come from all walks of life because that's what the Janes are all about"
- Gozamos
"Con una propuesta musical que va del post-punk al rock latino y pasando por muchas influencias y combinaciones, la banda local The Braided Janes va abriéndose camino más allá de la escena local “underground”.... "Siguiendo la línea del espíritu contestatario del punk y rock, The Braided Janes tiene en sus temas una fuerte carga de contenido crítico, su visión de la necesidad de un cambio social y por supuesto, un gran toque feminista."
- Chicago Tribune
