good read! i'll have to check out the song they collaborated on. i missed the title of it. any one know?
really hope the solo album comes out this year....
"when you're gone, you're gone" .... just checked iTunes
That was a nice read. Thanks for posting this.
I love these unexpected collaborations. Two things jumped out at me, though, from this conversation: 1) Jim's solo record is apparently completed, and 2) new Monsters of Folk is coming down the pike. Oh, man, I love having all this music to look forward to!
Jim James: I did another collaborative project with Jay Farrar, Anders Parker and Will Johnson that was...we wrote music to Woody Guthrie lyrics and that's called New Multitudes that's coming out next Tuesday, I guess. It's crazy. And then I've got a solo record that's done, but I'm just trying to figure out when the best time to put it out is. So that'll come out at some point and I don't know, I'm working on a bunch of stuff, kind of working on a new Monsters of Folk record and just trying to enjoy life. Find some peace and calm
