Drill a Hole In That Substrate and Tell Me What You See

Jim White's first two releases on Luaka Bop, 'Wrong Eyed Jesus' and 'No Such Place,' have cemented his reputation as one of the most acclaimed songwriters in recent years. His unique blend of alt country and metaphysics has been described by the New York Times as 'a thing of intimate beauty, wrapped in translucent layers of pedal steel, slide guitar, and hi-fi versions of lo-fi sounds.' White now returns with more tales of demented melancholy and fables of bizarre enchantment on 'Drill a Hole in That Substrate and Tell Me What You See.' Produced by Joe Henry, Barenaked Ladies, and White himself, 'Drill...' features guest appearances by Aimee Mann, Chocolate Genius, and Bill Frisell.
