Brand new release from a cadre of musical brothers finally coalescing after years on the road apart, Jay Farrar (Son Volt, Gob Iron, Uncle Tupelo), Will Johnson (Centro-matic, South San Gabriel), Anders Parker (Varnaline, Gob Iron) and Yim Yames (My Morning Jacket, Monsters of Folk- aka Jim James) gratefully deliver New Multitudes, an intimate interpretation of American icon and musical legend Woody Guthrie”s previously unrecorded lyrics. What makes this album such a rarity in today”s music world is the allowance of the songs infectious simplicity to stand alone in all their glory. In doing so, Farrar, Johnson, Parker, and Yames have paid the greatest compliment to Woody Guthrie and the collaborative spirit he so greatly embodied. This is an album which seamlessly converges the sepia-toned essence of the time honored past with the risks needed to forge the future. These 4 singer songwriters will hit the road for a string of dates to promote this release.
