The Jayhawks offer a very American, Literary Everyman experience. Picked songs in the tradition of The Byrds, Gram Parsons and Petty straight out of Minneapolis. On latest album Sanctuary Park it's best to pull up a pew with a brew on a placemat and let the record spin; let the melodies unwind and the songwriters within the band tell their tales.It's not a tough ask.
It's Americana mapped out on a fresh canvas. Deeply familiar but let's face it. The somgs we love most are the ones we're most familiar with. Song after song unfolds with uncanny wonder and wisdom. Quite devoid of cynicism and dread.These melodies are trustworthy and true
