THE JAYHAWKS [https://www.jayhawksofficial.com/]
The incredible harmonies and distinctive arrangements of The Jayhawks set them
apart from the rest of the Minneapolis music scene that merged in the 1980s.
Over the course of almost 4 decades, 11 albums, countless memorable live shows
and enough personal drama to fill a couple of Behind the Music episodes, this
beloved band soared to heights few ever achieve while winning the hearts and
minds of numerous critics, fans and peers in the process.
After releasing 2 Indie albums in the 80s, The Jayhawks had become a driving
force and inspiration behind the growing Americana movement in the early 1990s.
Combining the talents of singer-songwriters Gary Louris and Mark Olson, The
Jayhawks released their major label debut, the acclaimed Hollywood Town Hall
(1992) on the Def American label. This was followed by Tomorrow the Green Grass
(1995), which produced the alternative radio hit single “Blue.”
When Olson left to pursue a solo career, Louris singularly took over the
songwriting role in The Jayhawks creating the band’s enduring sound on some of
their best selling and well-received albums including Sound of Lies (1997),
Smile (2000) and Rainy Day Music (2003).
Louris continues to write and tour with the longtime core group of Marc Perlman,
Karen Grotberg, and Tim O’Reagan. While the touring line-up has changed over the
years and Olson briefly reappeared in 2010 to record and tour, this classic
lineup maintains a commitment to excellence and forward motion in their shows
and in their recordings. Paging Mr. Proust(2016), was produced in Portland with
Peter Buck and Tucker Martine and found the band moving in several new exciting
directions. The band’s 10th studio album, Back Roads And Abandoned Motels, was
released in the summer of 2018,featuring Jayhawks versions of songs Gary Louris
had previously written with other artists plus 2 new compositions. In July 2020
The Jayhawks released their latest album, XOXO, that features songwriting and
lead vocal contributions from all 4 core members.
The Jayhawks have made music in 4 different decades and areas vital now as they
were in 1985. They definitely have earned their reputation as a true American
treasure.
