Truth & Salvage Co.

In February 2012, the band went into the studio with producer Rob Schnapf, the intuitive, guiding hand behind Elliott Smith’s XO and Figure 8, Beck’s Mellow Gold, and standout works by Guided By Voices, Dr. Dog, The Whigs and more.  Two months later, Truth & Salvage Co. emerged with a 14-song cycle - exquisitely carved, emotionally immediate, pop-savvy, country-kissed rock akin to Schnapf’s work with Smith with a vibe copacetic to Aimee Mann, 70s Beach Boys, and The Mother Hips.  Management and the label rejected the record and made the band take two more swings at an album they’d accept.
