Son Volt Returns in March with New Album & Tour
 Jay Farrar |
Son Volt's The Search is set for release on March 6, 2007, on Transmit Sound/Legacy. A national tour will begin that same month.
According to the record label, "The Search is a startlingly powerful and inspiring departure from the band's alt-country laden records, employing an exceptional variety of sounds, melodies, and arrangements."
In a recent press release, bandleader Jay Farrar said, "Instrumentally, the electric guitar was the focus of the last record Okemah, but for The Search we wanted to try something new. This time, we utilized different instrumentation to fit each song -- from guitar pedal loops to various keyboard sounds to horns."
The Band:
Jay Farrar (vocal, guitar, piano), Dave Bryson (drums), Derry DeBorja (keyboards), Andrew Duplantis (bass, backing vocals) and Brad Rice (guitar).
