Son Volt :: Union

Jay FarrarPosted on

Farrar’s strength as a lyricist often lies in his precise way of putting words together. His work has always been similar to an abstract painter, using imagery and the sounds of words as much as the meanings themselves to create moods across the rustic rock soundscapes of Son Volt’s music . . .

Lambchop The AD InterviewPosted on
