Artist Biography
Since the late '90s, singer/songwriter Damien Jurado has built up one of the strongest catalogs on the indie scene, earning high critical praise for a poignant folk songcraft that has transcended detours into pop, roots rock, full-fledged electric indie rock, psychedelia, and even found-sound experiments. Many of Jurado's songs spin concise, literate tales of quiet, everyday despair, which have often earned him comparisons to short-story writer Raymond Carver. Following a handful of self-released cassettes, Jurado made his official debut in 1997 with Waters Ave S.; 1999's Rehearsals for Departure proved to be his critical breakthrough. He landed on the Billboard 200 for the first time with the Richard Swift-produced Maraqopa trilogy in the 2010s. His subsequent series of self-produced albums revealed a nostalgia for '70s and '80s cultural Americana, including 2018's The Horizon Just Laughed, 2022's Reggae Film Star, and 2023's Motorcycle Madness.
