Jay Farrar, Will Johnson, Anders Parker, Yim Yames - 'New Multitudes' Teaser
Did you know about this? I just read a 3-star review of the New Multitudes CD - a collection of songs built upon unrecorded Woody Guthrie lyrics by Jay Farrar (Son Volt), Will Johnson (Centro-matic), Anders Parker (Varnaline), Yim Yames (My Morning Jacket) - in the new issue (Paul McCartney-cover) of Rolling Stone . The magazine's website did a feature on the release which one person commented, probably rightfully so, "Wasn't this album called Mermaid Avenue?" I'm snagging this [...]

Yim Yames, Jay Farrar, Will Johnson & Anders Parker – "Old LA"

Jan 11, 11:00am Stereogum
There's quite a collection of Americana big dogs at work on this track: Former Uncle Tupelo co-leader and current Son Volt frontman Ja Farrar, My Morning Jacket main man Yim Yames (or, as most of us still know him, Jim James), Centro-matic leader Will Jonson, and Gob Iron guy Anders Parker, as well as the ghost of Woody Guthrie. I'm going to have to add so many tags to this post! Here's the story: Woody Guthrie's daughter Nora invited all these musicians to pick through Guthrie's notebooks of unrecorded songs, the same way Billy Bragg and Wilco did [...]

Yim Yames, Jay Farrar, Will Johnson release Woody Guthrie tribute album

Jan 11, 9:32am Consequence Of Sound
Yim Yames, Jay Farrar, Will Johnson release Woody Guthrie tribute album To coincide with the 100th birthday of Woody Guthrie, My Morning Jacket's Yim Yames, Son Volt's Jay Farrar, Centro-matic's Will Johnson, and Varnaline's Anders Parker have recorded an album featuring previously unrecorded Guthrie lyrics. Entitled New Multitudes , the LP comprises interpretations on 12 Guthrie compositions, most of which were written during his time in Los Angeles. Says Guthrie's daughter Nora, who sanctioned the project: "Lyric wise, it's a part of the story that is still mostly unknown. From Woody's experiences on LA's skid row to his later years in Topanga Canyon, they are uniquely intimate, and relate two distinctly emotional [...]

Listen: Jay Farrar, Will Johnson, Anders Parker and Yim Yames – Old LA

Jan 11, 7:12am The Line Of Best Fit
Listen: Jay Farrar, Will Johnson, Anders Parker and Yim Yames – Old LA Here's something rather special. Remember a few years back (well, 14 to be precise), Billy Bragg and Wilco joined forces to delve deep into the Woody Guthrie archive to create music for some of the hugely influential folk icon's back catalogue. What resulted was Mermaid Avenue (volumes 1 and 2), one of the true great collaborative efforts of recent memory. So it goes, Jeff Tweedy of Wilco's old sparring partner Jay Farrar (formerly of Uncle Tupelo, currently frontman of Son Volt) has teamed up with My Morning Jacket's Yim Yames, Will Johnson (Centro-matic) and Anders Parker (Gob Iron) [...]

All-Star Band Touring Behind Woody Guthrie Album

All-Star Band Touring Behind Woody Guthrie Album As we previously reported Anders Parker, Jay Farrar, Yim Yames and Will Johnson headed into the studio to record a new batch of Woody Guthrie songs (think Billy Bragg & Wilco - Mermaid Avenue) which will be released on the album New Multitudes .

Monday Interview: Anders Parker

Dec 7, 2009, 10:08am Things I'd Rather Be Doing
Monday Interview: Anders Parker I'm not sure why I first picked up Anders Parker 's music. The first time I heard him was on a Space Needle album, but that's about as far from indicative of his sound as you could get. Perhaps it was the appeal of that disc, however, that led me to the debut of Parker's other band, Varnaline's 1996 album Man of Sin. The disc was appealing, but because it was essentially four-track demos, it didn't feel like the unadulterated voice of the artist. Not yet. That came soon enough, however, with the band's self-titled sophomore album [...]

After the band's demise, Parker issued four albums as Varnaline and two under his own name and collaborated with Son Volt's Jay Farrar as Gob Iron. His latest release is double album Skyscraper Crow (Bladen County), which features [...]

Jay Farrar readies new Mermaid Avenue with Jim James, Will Johnson

Sep 25, 2009, 1:00pm Consequence Of Sound
If you know anything about Woody Guthrie, Billy Bragg, and/or Wilco, then you're probably aware Mermaid Avenue . If you're not, then for the purpose of this article know this: Mermaid Avenue is the name of a 1998 album of previously unheard material written by Guthrie, put to music and performed by Bragg and the Wilco. It was such a big deal that it even spawned a documentary, 1999's Man in the Sand , and another album, 2000's aptly titled Mermaid Avenue Vol. II . Now, with all this mind, you can see [...]
