Driftwood Souls

Driftwood Soulss

Driftwood Souls Is Jalan Crossland's fifth album. It was recorded in the fall of 2009 at Laramie, Wyoming's Thunderground Sound studio. This is essentially a trio album, on which Jalan collaborates with Shaun Kelley (basses, cello, vocals) and Andy Phreaner (drums, tambourine, shaker, chain, anvil, vocals). The only outside musician is vocalist Mandy Bohlender (of J Shogren and the Shanghai'd), who appears on two tracks (Mama was a Roughneck and Sweet Lovin Booze). Dan Tinker engineered and mixed the tracks, and the album was mastered at Airshow mastering by Jim Wilson (Richard Thompson, James McMurtry, The Gourds).

As a concept, "driftwood souls" are people whose "roots never seem to hold the snow". They are emotional vagabonds, whose roaming leads them to behaviors that are shall we say, not ultimately in their best interests...
