KINKS, JAYHAWKS: A Second Americana

Kinks

Ray Davies of The Kinks teamed up again with The Jayhawks for his new album, Our Country: Americana Act 2.

Davies used the Minnesota alt-country veterans for last year's Americana, and Jayhawks frontman Gary Louris says the experience of making the two albums was pretty amazing. Louris says, "He’s one of my heroes and I think he’s written some of the most important music of the 20th century. So to be part of his records and to get to know him as a friend was great."

Louris adds that for this second volume of songs, he ended up working with Davies more closely than he expected.
