Thrill Jockey

Thrill Jockey is an American independent record label that was established in 1992 by Bettina Richards, a former A&R representative at Atlantic Records. Originally based in New York City, the label relocated to Chicago, Illinois in 1995.
With over two decades of experience, Thrill Jockey has become a prominent force in the music industry. Known for its diverse roster of artists and commitment to artistic integrity, the label has consistently released groundbreaking and innovative music across various genres.
Thrill Jockey's catalog includes a wide range of critically acclaimed albums from both established and emerging artists. From experimental rock to electronic music, jazz to folk, the label continues to push boundaries and support unique voices within the industry.

Glenn Jones is a master of American Primitive guitar, a style invented by the influential John Fahey, whose traditional finger-picking techniques and wide-ranging influences were used to create modern original compositions. What elevates Jones beyond the mere technically gifted is his uncanny ability to convey emotion in his fluid performance and compositions. After releasing the critically acclaimed 'My Garden State' album in 2013, Jones is set to return with his new studio record, 'Fleeting', recorded in a house on the banks of the Rancocas Creek in Mount Holly, New Jersey, where Jones and his recording engineer Laura Baird made no attempts to soundproof their environment, instead incorporating the sounds of crickets and birds into the recordings. Jones, who led the experimental ensemble Cul de Sac, records in unique spaces to ground each of his albums in a very specific, distinctive time and place. Jones shies away from standard tunings on his guitar and his banjo in order to challenge himself and his listeners. These unconventional tunings and his selection of recording spaces guide his songwriting, directing the way he makes his music. The resulting album is one that only Jones, with his unparalleled skills as a storyteller and as a musician, could have created. CD version in a 4 panel mini-LP style gatefold package with 4 page booklet including notes and tunings of each song. LP pressed on virgin vinyl and packaged in a heavy stock jacket with innersleeve including notes and tunings of each song and free download card.
