PLEASE NOTE: This item will ship directly from Evan Patterson / Future Heart Works; if there are other Shirt Killer items in your order they will ship separately. When Louisville, Kentucky’s Evan Patterson invented the moniker Jaye Jayle, he intended the listener to think that his music was created by an esoteric, unknown singer-songwriter. Those two made-up words, Jaye Jayle, created a visual: A BLUE BIRD CAGE. It’s fitting that this record without his backing band has that title. The six songs on the 12” vinyl album are presented in a stranded, lonesome, and stripped-down new form. With no backing tracks, synthesizers, or elaborate recording production, A BLUE BIRD CAGE was recorded live in the studio with only a single guitar playing through three amps and Evan’s stunning vocal performance. These songs were originally written to be played with a band, not solo, but the world takes us to unforeseen mysterious places. Some of those times, in some of those places, we wind up alone. The first song, “HOPE FAITH COUNTY”, will be released as a standalone digital single. The rest of the album will not be available for streaming, nor will it be available in record stores. The 12” vinyl is only available direct from Evan’s new imprint FUTURE HEART WORKS via Shirt Killer, or at Jaye Jayle’s live shows. The first pressing is a limited edition of 100 green vinyl and 200 black vinyl.
