    Recorded long before the plague was just a twinkle in our eyes, "Ego Jingles" is the first proper solo album by Jail Weddings frontman/author Gabriel Hart. His quietest audio effort to date, "Ego Jingles" is an avant-folk art-damaged test of nuance, a challenge to our sensitivity — often tender, occasionally antagonistic, sometimes cringe, yet altogether difficult to ignore or dismiss. Equal parts internal Seppuku and exterior dread, "Ego Jingles" is not without moments of existential comedy, as punctuated by his album-closing cover of Weird Al Yankovic's "One More Minute" as a band-aid — but after that, you're on your own.

    Hart's guitar/vocals are accompanied by Julie Carpenter (Less Bells, Jail Weddings) on violin/viola/cello as well as Dain Luscombe (Less Bells) with additional instrumentation/production.

    Recorded/mixed/mastered by Pat Kearns (Exploding Hearts, Blue Skies for Black Hearts) at his solar powered Goat Mountain Studios in Landers, CA.

    Cover photography by Austin Arthur Hart/art design by Reuben Kaiban.

    CD comes with handmade/signed lyric book.

GET ON MY LEVEL (Hart)

I’ve got a vision I am afraid you will not understand
Unless you take that leap with me
And follow my every command
If you’re still uncertain
I’ll just show you how
They’ll close the curtain
We’ll take our bow
But time is running out
So, you better get on my level now

I have risen from the dead
Now, look at the ground where I stand
So fertile it can push all the daises up from this land
But I cannot go at this alone
I need only your flesh and your bones
Not a horse or a plow
Just you to get on my level now

I’ve got a vision I am afraid you will not understand
Self-serving as the Bible
Just as brutal as the Quran
But all those false prophets they didn’t know how
So, I’m writing the true gospel now
You’re disposable as a cow
So, you better get on my level now

Jail Weddings Los Angeles, California

Wilted Eden, the expansive third album by L.A.'s tarnished romantics Jail Weddings is one of those rare albums recorded in "real time" chronicling the intersection between the whirlwind birth and eventual death of new love, along with the sudden unforeseen deaths of many loved ones. Still standing in their 10th dizzying year, the Wall of Sound provocateurs return anew... ... more
