NEW DOUBLE ALBUM HAPPY BOOK OUT
MARCH 20
Jerry Joseph and The Jackmormons |
For more than 30 years, Jerry Joseph has been strapping on a guitar and chasing down truth, understanding and soul with tenacity and resonant skill. Joseph is the archetypal musician’s musician – something that’s resoundingly clear on his sweeping new double album Happy Book, to be released March 20, 2012 on Response Records. Look for Joseph and his The Jackmormons to tour this spring in support of the album’s release. The list of currently confirmed tour dates is listed below – with many others still to be announced.
Produced by Joseph’s former Little Women band mate Gregg Williams (Dandy Warhols, Blitzen Trapper), Happy Book is an emotional and sonic wallop fueled by the tightest, tastiest playing the Jackmormons have ever captured in the studio. “After 17 years, this album brings together a lot of things I’ve always wanted on a record,” explains Joseph. “This sounds like a band thats been together 17 years and has evolved along the way.”
Happy Book incorporates horns and other choice elements from guests – Jenny Conlee-Drizos and Chris Funk (The Decemberists), Eric Earley (Blitzen Trapper), Dan Eccles (Richmond Fontaine), Wally Ingram, Little Sue Weaver and Paul Brainard – into The Jackmormons’ tight-knit chemistry to create an expansive work that captures Josephs startlingly broad musical range in a roughly graceful, swiftly intoxicating way.

LEGENDARY SONGWRITER HITS THE ROAD THIS WINTER
Van Dyke Parks |
Legendary artist, composer and producer Van Dyke Parks will embark on a run of Southeast tour dates, including a February appearance at NPR’s Mountain Stage. After a set of dates with Fleet Foxes last fall, Parks will return to this part of the country once again in support of his unique 7″ vinyl series with artwork from some of the most important contemporary artists of our time, including Ed Ruscha, Art Speigelman, Frank Holmes and many more.
Parks will kick off this run of performances with a set at Santa Barbara’s Soho Restaurant & Music Club on Tuesday, January 31. The show is in conjunction with an after party for the screening of “Music Man Murray,” a documentary scored by Parks, and written and directed by his son, Richard Parks premiering at the Santa Barbara Independent Film Festival.
This series of 45′s is Parks’ first new studio music in over 15 years, since his acclaimed album Orange Crate Art. Announced last August on his own label Bananastan, the first four vinyls are available for purchase at the label’s website and during the forthcoming live appearances.
In December, Parks released the latest single ‘Amazing Graces’/Hold Back Time’ with Charles Ray art and will release the final two installments on March 20: ‘Sassafrass’/ ‘The All Golden’ illustrated by both Billy Edd Wheeler and Klaus Voormann and ‘Missin’ Missippi’/'The Parting Hand’ with sleeve art by Sally Parks, and Stanley Dorfman.
