Drive-By Truckers co-founder Patterson Hood’s newest solo record, Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams, produced by Chris Funk (The Decemberists, Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks) at various studios in Hood’s current hometown of Portland, OR, marks the singer-songwriter-guitarist’s most expansive and ambitious extracurricular effort to date, supported by a stellar cast of friends and fellow musicians - Waxahatchee, Brad and Phil Cook (Megafaun), Kevin Morby, Wednesday, Brad Morgan and Jay Gonzalez (Drive-By Truckers), Steve Berlin (Los Lobos, The Blasters), David Barbe (Sugar, Mercyland), Nate Query (The Decemberists), Steve Drizos (Jerry Joseph and The Jackmormons), Daniel Hunt (Neko Case, M Ward), and Stuart Bogie (The Hold Steady, Goose).
Hood’s fourth solo album and first in over 12 years, Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams sees the veteran singer, guitarist, and songwriter exploring his youth and young manhood in a collection unlike anything in his ever-evolving catalogue. The album was further driven by his friendship with producer/musician Chris Funk, a “profound chemistry” forged upon Hood’s 2013 move to Portland. Having long discussed a collaboration, in 2023 the stars finally aligned, and they set to work on this new album which Hood intended to be “a bigger departure” from DBT and his previous solo efforts than ever before.
Artist Website
Lydia Loveless (she/her/they/them) is an Ohio-bred singer-songwriter whom over six full length records has defined and defied expectations within the Alt Country and Americana communities. Owing as much to her punk rock upbringing as to her midwest roots, Loveless’ brand of heartland rock has been embraced by critics and listeners alike, with their fanbase growing to include some of Loveless’ heroes like Lucinda Williams and Jason Isbell. The unmistakable voice, an incisive way with melody, and an unrelenting willingness to cast the first stone inward are all hallmarks of Loveless’ songwriting. From the brash to the delicate, Loveless will welcome you in with a commanding presence, big voice and a turn of a phrase that all at once breaks your heart and makes you a fan for life.
