I am Hen-a-re the 8th I am

Little bit jazzy, little bit alt. country, Joe Henry should be a legend.

He has been releasing music and producing music since the mid-80s, but it has been four years since his last album. So on September 11, 2007, when Civilians is launched by ANTI-, it will be a long awaited record.Henry produced it himself and had it mixed by Ryan Freeland at The Garfield House.

"I wanted these songs to operate in a way that was clearer," Henry explains. "I set a goal to be sonically, lyrically and vocally lucid."

Listen:
Joe Henry - "Time Is A Lion" (mp3)
Joe Henry - "Sold" (mp3)

Sidenote: Henry has been married to Madonna's sister Melanie Ciccone since 1985. Madonna has a sister? Hehe, poor girl, such a big shadow.
