Following the announcement of his new album Modern Country – out 10 June 2016 via Merge – with a stunning album trailer as well as the previously released ‘Gone Clear‘, William Tyler has today shared ‘Kingdom of Jones‘ – a shining, unclouded dedication “to the memory of the people of Jones County, Mississippi.” With sumptuous, rolling guitar lines, it sports a sense of brightness about it that brings Tyler’s vivid vision to life.
Speaking about Jones County, Tyler says that it’s “a small county in the southern portion of the state that seceded from the Confederacy during the Civil War. The county became a haven for Confederate deserters and those opposed to the War. I like the idea of it: a tiny kingdom in the heart of the Deep South that fought actively against “The Cause” and gives a more complex tint to the reality of what the War was about. As someone who is proud to be Southern but struggles constantly with the weight of the history of my homeland, I like thinking about the people of Jones County during the War. They must have realised something that a lot of people still haven’t figured out.”
Modern Country features an ensemble backing group consisting of multi-instrumentalist Phil Cook (Hiss Golden Messenger, Blind Boys of Alabama), bassist Darin Gray (Tweedy, Jim O’Rourke), and percussionist Glenn Kotche(Wilco). The album was tracked at April Base Studios in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and finished in Nashville. It was recorded and mixed by Jon Ashley, and produced by Tyler and Brad Cook.
William Tyler is currently on tour in the US with The Mountain Goats and will support Wilco this August. He’ll also play at the Bon Iver-curated Eaux Claires Music & Arts festival. Pre-order the album on CD or LP here, or digitally via iTunes.
