Mason Jennings on New Modest Mouse Label

There Ain’t No Rust on the Happiness Bus
Pitchfork’s main headline today is that Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse is signing Mason Jennings to his new label… which also means that Brock is no longer at Sub Pop bringing on bands like Wolf Parade.

Don’t know Mason Jennings? You should. You really should. His latest album “Use Your Voice” on Bar/None was a masterpiece.

Here are some tracks from that album… one of my favorites from 2004.

Crown
Lemon Grove Avenue
Keepin it Real

The new album will be out in early 2006.
