Gary Louris solo album Vagabonds


Former Jayhawks vocalist/guitarist Gary Louris releases his first solo album entitled Vagabonds on February 19, 2008. This is exciting news for the Grassman, particularly as the Jayhawks were his favorite band before they disbanded in 2004.
Produced by Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes, it features vocal assistance from such luminaries as Jenny Lewis, Susanna Hoffs, The Chapin Sisters and of course, Chris Robinson.
You can check out two of the songs 'True Blue' and 'She Only Calls Me On Sundays' on his MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/garylouris
As expected, they are excellent, acoustic folk/rock songs with lashings of pedal steel guitar. Wonderful stuff indeed.
