Gary Louris - Words and Music - 2008

The alt-country genre owes a lot to the voice and songs of Gary Louris and his on-again, off-again band The Jayhawks. But with their breakup a few years behind him Louris has now stepped into a solo career, releasing the album 'Vagabonds' with production help from pal Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes. So get all the bird-related cliches ready, as Gary Louris 'flies solo' in live session with Claudia Marshall.
