Tim O'Reagan

Fans already know O'Reagan through his work with The Jayhawks. He played drums and also wrote songs that were strong enough to find a place on their albums. Though his distinctive vocals earned him a place in their vocal tapestry, he stayed in the background, as drummers do. His self-titled debut album, released in 2007, is not what you might expect from a drummer. It is extraordinarily musical, from beginning to end. His singing style is conversational, understated, and richly emotional. Its not hard to discern his influences, but in the end his voice is like none other. The songs might be considered Americana but sweetened with a psychedelic sprinkle and treated now and then to a European vacation. They're sharp too, many of them wrapping around hooks that aim for your ear and dig into your memory.
