"Not Here is the new full-length LP from The Pollies, a band that has been defying genres and leaping over boundaries since their first release in 2012. It's their first release for Florence, AL's Single Lock Records, and it shows the band shedding their alt-country skin in favor of experimental noise and unadulterated risk. Jay Burgess is the songwriter behind The Pollies, and on ""Not Here"", he hits on all the familiar topics-love, loss, regret and triumph with an edge and ferocity that shows up on tracks like ""Lost"" and ""Jackson"". Simply put, these are compelling stories and Burgess has stepped into his own as a gifted storyteller. Accompanied by deft and accomplished musicians, ""Not Here"" is the kind of statement that signals the arrival of a great American band."
