We have a long history with singer-songwriter, Damien Jurado.  Every time Jurado releases a new album, it makes our Best Albums of the Year list (see HERE and HERE).  Further, his 1999 Rehearsals For Departure album has established itself as one of the best albums ever made.

Following those hallowed heights, Jurado has recently released a critically-acclaimed new album on Secretly Canadian entitled Brothers And Sisters Of The Eternal Son.  To get a feel for the affecting new songs, check out two songs from the album that Jurado recorded solo recently at The Strongroom.   First up is Magic Number followed by Jericho Road.  After, listen to another new song, Silver Malcolm, performed recently on WPFK.  We love the unadorned deliveries of this fine storyteller’s songs.

You can pick up a deluxe version of Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Son HERE, or the regular version of the album HERE, HERE, or (preferably) at your local record store.

After you’ve seen why you should attend, seek out Jurado’s European and US tour dates at bottom, and get ye to a show.
