10.4.07 - Damien Jurado covers J. Tillman!!
One of my all-time favorite artists, the always-superb Damien Jurado, has a gorgeous cover of a song from J. Tillman's Cancer and Delirium - the excellent When I Light Your Darkened Door - get it here while it lasts (I've also heard it's floating around on dimeadozen). |

8.18.07 - Folk Music comp CD release show
The fine fellows at Monkeyclaus (who did the mastering on the compilation - thanks Abel!) recorded the second of 2 shows to mark the release of the Folk Music for the End of the World compilation. They only managed to get one track from Hezekiah Jones - the excellent Dark Hollow which will be on their upcoming EP! - and you can check that out here and listen to awesome performances by comp alumni Sarah White and Chris Bathgate (both playing some unreleased material) and a great set by Philadelphia's The Spinning Leaves. |

J. Tillman - Cancer and Delirium
Long one of my favorite songwriters, Yer Bird is proud to release J. Tillman's most engaging album yet. Cancer and Delirium strikes the perfect balance between his intimate Keep recordings and 2006's full-band melodies on Minor Works. It bottles up the hope and hesitance of a damp and foggy early morning before you can tell if the sun has the strength to penetrate through. Simply stunning. Clips, mp3s, reviews and all that good stuff are available here. |

Folk Music for the End of the World
Over a year in the making! The first Yer Bird compilation album is a stunning - if I do say so myself - collection of the very best songwriters in North America contributing new, rare or unreleased tracks ruminating on the collapse - be it global or individual. Featuring tracks by Hayden, J. Tillman, Sarah White, Elephant Micah, O'death, Chris Bathgate and so many others you need to go here to get clips and links and info about all the incredible artists involved. |

Hezekiah Jones - Hezekiah Says You're A-Ok
The debut album from Philadelphia songwriter eztraordinaire! It's the rare writer that can craft such intimate and memorable vocal melodies, much less marry them to such an eclectic cast of characters, places, and things of memory. Perfect for days spent adrift on a lonesome, creaky raft after the Atlantic sun has twisted all your Palace Brothers and Beatles records into beautiful, unplayable shapes. |
