With influences ranging from *Giant Sand* to *Vic Chesnutt* and *Sun Kil Moon*, Magnolia Electric Co.'s music captures raw emotions and tells compelling stories. Fans of artists like *Richard Buckner*, *Mark Kozelek*, and *Lambchop* will appreciate their introspective songwriting style.

throughout jason molina's musical career of 12 plus years under the names songs: ohia and magnolia electric co., he's had a dozen different backing bands in as many different recording environments. 'fading trails' represents three of jason molina's incarnations, in four environments - composed of recording sessions molina and company did with steve albini at his electric audio studio, david lowery at his sound of music studio, and at the famous sun studio in memphis, tennessee. 'fading trails' also features songs from the home recorded shohola sessions. the essence of these recordings were extracted to create one cohesive being and thus defining what magnolia electric co. truly is. something that is hard to define - one head, multiple bodies... the opposite of a hydra head. players on this album include old and new faces: jason molina, mike brenner, jason groth, mike kapinus, david lowery, mark rice, pete schreiner, miguel urbiztondo, alan weatherhead with guest appearances by andrew bird, molly blackbird, jonathan cargill and rick alverson.
