Julie Coon and Vincent Day of Venus Janes have recently released their very first CD, entitled “Somebody Like You.” The CD contains their original rock and roll music.
They have been writing music and performing together since1983. Other members of the group Venus Jones have come and gone, but Mrs. Coon and Mr. Day have always remained.
Because they both have families, the idea of producing a CD and cutting down on the time performing, along with late hours, was desireable, said Mr. Day. Mrs. Coon lives in Castleton with her husband, Howard, and their four children. Mr. Day lives in Sperryville with his wife, Dinah, and their two children.
The two longtime residents of Rappahannock have included all original songs on the CD, most of which were written by Mr. Day. Mrs. Coon does the vocals and a little percussion; Mr. Day sings and plays rhythm guitar and lead guitar. Robert “Smiggy” Smith contributed some bass, keyboard and lead guitar on the CD, and also recorded it in his studio in Brandy Station. Many locals know Smiggy as a member of the band “The Okays.”
