We have a long history with singer-songwriter, Damien Jurado.<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 Every time Jurado<\/strong> releases a new album, it makes our Best Albums of the Year<\/strong> list (see HERE<\/strong><\/a> and HERE<\/strong><\/a>).\u00a0 Further, his 1999 Rehearsals For Departure<\/strong><\/em> album has established itself as one of the best albums ever made<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Following those hallowed heights, Jurado<\/strong> has recently released a critically-acclaimed new album on Secretly Canadian<\/strong><\/a> entitled Brothers And Sisters Of The Eternal Son.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em> <\/strong>To get a feel for the affecting new songs, check out two songs from the album that Jurado <\/strong>recorded solo recently at The Strongroom<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0 First up is Magic Number <\/strong><\/em>followed by Jericho Road<\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 After, listen to another new song, Silver Malcolm<\/strong><\/em>, performed recently on WPFK<\/strong>.\u00a0 We love the unadorned deliveries of this fine storyteller’s songs.<\/p>\n

You can pick up a deluxe version of Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Son<\/strong><\/em> HERE<\/a><\/strong>, or the regular version of the album HERE<\/a>, HERE<\/a><\/strong>, or (preferably) at your local record store<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

After you’ve seen why you should attend, seek out Jurado’s<\/strong> European and US tour dates at bottom, and get ye to a show.<\/p>\n
