Joan of Arc

Joan of Arc was a band from Chicago, Illinois. They began in 1995, following the break up of a former band, caP'n Jazz. Joan of Arc were known for their use of electronics, samples, and multi-track recordings in their songs - some songs on The Gap contained over 100 tracks - although recently they have been writing in more traditional terms. Their lyrics and cover art are considered highly conceptual and often abstract to the point of listener confoundment.
