Guster<\/h4>\n

Not long before the making of their new album\u00a0Ooh La La<\/em>, Guster celebrated three decades together as a band\u2014a journey that\u2019s included landing a series of hits on the Billboard charts, working with luminaries like Steve Lillywhite and Richard Swift, launching their own music festival, and amassing an ardent fanbase partly on the strength of their relentless touring and deeply communal live show. But despite reaching a milestone few musical acts ever come close to attaining, Guster\u2019s ninth studio LP reveals a band fully in touch with the voracious creative energy that first inspired their formation. A major leap forward for lead vocalist Ryan Miller, guitarist Adam Gardner, drummer Brian Rosenworcel, and multi-instrumentalist Luke Reynolds,\u00a0Ooh La La\u00a0<\/em>ultimately matches that wide-eyed spirit with a newly heightened sense of confidence, conviction, and commitment to the raw sincerity that\u2019s made them so beloved.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn all the time we\u2019ve been together we\u2019ve never really felt our age as a band\u2014we\u2019re still so hungry, still excited to create,\u201d says Gardner. \u201cA lot of people have told us they\u2019re amazed at how democratic our process is, but I think that\u2019s a big part of why we\u2019re still able to open up this space where the ideas just flow. It also helps that we\u2019ve built a relationship with our fans where there\u2019s a real sense of trust and a desire for us to keep growing and keep pushing ourselves. It\u2019s such a gift that allows us to be truly free, and to make whatever music we want to make.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Mountain Goats<\/h4>\n

Jenny from Thebes began its life as many albums by the Mountain Goats do, with John Darnielle playing the piano until a lyric emerged. That lyric, \u201cJenny was a warrior Jenny was a thief Jenny hit the corner clinic begging for relief,\u201d became \u201cJenny III,\u201d a song which laid down a challenge he\u2019d never taken up before: writing a sequel to one of his most beloved albums.<\/p>\n

The Mountain Goats\u2019 catalog is thick with recurring characters\u2014Jenny, who originally appears in the All Hail West Texas track bearing her name, as well as in \u201cStraight Six\u201d from Jam Eater Blues and Transcendental Youth side two jam \u201cNight Light,\u201d is one of these, someone who enters a song unexpectedly, pricking up the ears of fans who are keen on continuing the various narrative threads running through the Mountain Goats\u2019 discography before vanishing into the mist. In these songs, Jenny is largely defined by her absence, and she is given that definition by other characters. She is running from something. These features are beguiling, both to the characters who\u2019ve told her story so far and to the listener. They invite certain questions: Who is Jenny, really? What is she running from? Well, she\u2019s a warrior and a thief, and, this being an album by the Mountain Goats, it\u2019s a safe bet whatever she\u2019s fleeing is something bad. Something catastrophically bad.<\/p>\n

Jenny from Thebes is the story of Jenny, her southwestern ranch style house, the people for whom that house is a place of safety, and the west Texas town that is uncomfortable with its existence. It is a story about the individual and society, about safety and shelter and those who choose to provide care when nobody else will.<\/p>\n
