Patterson Hood's first solo record in over a decade was born out of a friendship with producer Chris Funk (The Decemberists). The pair would often perform together for fun and during Hood's solo tours, making far-off plans to make a record together. They eventually went into Jackpot Studios in Portland. Many of the songs were composed on piano marking a bigger departure from his work with Drive-By Truckers than prior solo efforts. Guest appearances from: Waxhatchee, Wednesday and Lydia Loveless.
Reviews
In case it's not obvious from the title, Patterson Hood's new solo album, Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams, is an unusual record. It's also a remarkable one - moving, powerful, sad, uplifting, and more.
- Americana Highways
The Drive-By Truckers co-founder's fourth solo album features contributions from Wednesday, Lydia Loveless, and Waxahatchee. Surreal and cinematic, it's his most adventurous solo release-and his best.
- Pitchfork
It's a miracle that anyone can sustain such quality songwriting over such a prolific output.
- Mojo
