The Jayhawks Vinyl, CD & tapes by The Jayhawks at Norman Records

The Jayhawks are a long running Twin Cities band whose blend of country rock and power pop should have seen them a little less under the radar than they have been. Still, their cult following will be delighted at this new album of originals which, rather than jump off at new tangents, just sharpens up their songwriting and creates another example of the Jayhawks doing what the Jayhawks do best. 

The Jayhawks deserve legendary status. Their fusion of alt. Country, power pop and laid back sing-a-longs has been delighting fans for 31 years now. Paging Mr Proust is their 9th studio album and first since 2011’s Mockingbird Time. For this release, the band return to their classic line-up of Gary Louris, Marc Perlman, Tim O’Reagan and Karen Grotberg. The album is produced by none other than REM's Peter Buck.
