Synopsis

Album Description
"Sounds like the anthems made for the most glorious hobo nation on earth--sort of Tom Waits playing at a kangaroo carnival, with brief interruptions for the funerals of Paul Simon and Elvis Perkins." -- Seattle Weekly Wool is an album of ballads and lullabies, all lushly orchestrated with strange instruments and rich voices. The album was started in December 2006 on a piano that used to belong to Elliott Smith. The other instruments were added in waves: Jason Leonard clanged on glockenspiels and silver bowls, and violin and percussion were added in a friend's house. Jaina recorded the vocals in his own kitchen, refrigerator unplugged, with food slowly spoiling. The songs on Wool give hope by presenting a world where any wild dream is possible--crows can ride bicycles, the dead come back happy, and springtime is always just up ahead.
