Biography

New York City (2009 – present)

Mystie Chamberlin , who performs regularly under the ironic moniker Just Another Folk Singer, moved from Chicago to New York City in May of 2006 with only a bass guitar, a duffel bag, and a pillow. In 2004, before even moving to NYC, she imposed herself on a group of East Village Artists known as the Antagonist Movement, a group of artists in New York City who aim to push art, themselves, and each other to create.

Her first musical endeavor was in 2007 as a bass player with singer-songwriter Morgan Reeds , with whom she formed ThrowAway Grrls, an all girl band. Before breaking up, ThrowAway Girls, also known as TAG, performed two shows, the second one being a sold-out Saturday night at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom opening for 3 tribute bands: Pet Semitary, Tragedy, and Mr. Brownstone. After more than a few lapses in judgment, countless adventures, and a heartbreak or two, she estranged herself into her East Village apartment and began learning how to play guitar.

In 2008, she sang and played guitar in a handful of shows with her merch-girl business partner, fellow artist and bassist, Charlotte Eerie. The duo was billed cleverly as the Merch Grrls, since Mystie continuously worked as a merch girl for many New York and Chicago staples including Cameron McGill, Jesse Malin, The Dirty Pearls, and Marah.
