Information about Damien Jurado
Damien Jurado is a singer/songwriter in the indie-rock tradition of Seattle, Washington. Over the years he has released albums on many labels; today his primary label is Secretly Canadian.
His music is often regarded as being heavily influenced by folk music. In the early 90s Damien was a member of the Seattle band, Linus. Another short lived project of his was the band Flowermouth in which he shared lead vocal duties with Dana Jill Meaux. He was also in the Christian-tinged hardcore band Coolidge with Eben Haase of Blenderhead fame on guitar and Seattle's David Bazan, who fronted the band Pedro the Lion and is currently a member of Headphones as well as a self titled solo project, on drums. Coolidge had a track featured on the Tooth & Nail label's Christian punk/emo compilation I'm Your Biggest Fan, Vol. 1 as well as a limited edition cassette/ep of a live performance on Vancouver, BC's college radio station CiTR. He was also an early member of Raft of Dead Monkeys.
Jurado's solo career began during the mid-1990s, with him releasing lo-fi folk based recordings on his own cassette-only label, Casa Recordings. Gaining a local cult following in Seattle, he was brought to the attention of Sub Pop Records by Sunny Day Real Estate singer Jeremy Enigk. After two 7" releases ("Motorbike" and "Trampoline") Sub Pop issued his first full album, Waters Ave S. in 1997. His second album Rehearsals for Departure, released in 1999, was a relative breakthrough. Produced by Ken Stringfellow (The Posies, Big Star), Jurado's second album established him as both a singer and songwriter of great ability.
He often makes use of found sound and field recording techniques, and has experimented with different forms of tape recordings. In 2000 he released Postcards and Audio Letters, a collection of found audio letters and fragments that he had found from sources such as thift store tape players and answering machines. Also released in 2000 was Ghost of David, Jurado's bleakest and most personal sounding record to date. 2002's I Break Chairs which would be his last album for Sub Pop, was a much rockier, electric affair. After signing for the Indiana based label Secretly Canadian Damien Jurado has reverted to his trademark folk ballad based style releasing three albums, 2003's Where Shall You Take Me?, 2005's On My Way To Absence and And Now That I'm In Your Shadow in 2007.
