Civilians

Joe Henry is one of the artists who have shaped the sound of modern American folk and blues music like hardly anyone else. 'Civilians', his 10th studio album, was originally released in 2007. It takes the listener on an intimate journey into Henry's poetic lyricism and is heavily influenced and inspired by the more melancholic sounds of folk and jazz music. Recorded in Henry's home studio at the time, the Garfield House in Pasadena, the album has a raw and stripped-back feel, with several of Henry's close friends and collaborators, like Loudon Wainwright III, Bill Frisell, Greg Leisz, and Van Dyke Parks, joining him in the studio to bring these songs to life. This 2024 reissue edition features not only the 12 songs of the original release, but also previously unheard bonus material, including intimate demo versions of several songs on the album, as well as the all-new bonus track 'Bread & Flowers'.
