    Avant-pop shapeshifter Dora Jar has amassed quite the resume since dropping her debut EP Digital Meadow in 2021: Billie Eilish, The 1975, and Gracie Abrams are just a few of her recent tourmates. Now she’s preparing to venture out again — this time with HAIM in support of their 2025 I Quit tour.

    And she’s plenty accomplished in her own right, with her 2024 LP No Way to Relax When You Are on Fire racking up critical acclaim and a hearty co-sign from KCRW’s Sam Sanders.
