Damien Jurado's 'What's New, Tomboy?"

For his 18th album (and second in as many years), Damien Jurado is moving on from the stripped-down rawness of 2019’s In The Shape Of A Storm, but losing none of the power inherent to his songs. What’s New, Tomboy? finds the venerable songwriter exploring the power of love for things and people both present and lost, and proves yet again that Jurado’s songs/words are one of our most vital conduits to understanding our humanity in this modern world.
