Formed in Minneapolis in 1985 around the songwriting duo of Mark Olson and Gary Louris - along with bassist Marc Perlman - The Jayhawks brought together the best elements of country, folk and rock. After four studio albums (including Hollywood Town Hall and Tomorrow the Green Grass) and numerous U.S. tours, Olson parted company in 1995, leaving Louris to carry on with a revolving lineup of bandmates, releasing the critically acclaimed albums Sound of Lies, Smiles and Rainy Day Music. With Olson and Louris currently on the road performing both new songs and classic Jayhawks tracks, the time is right to release the Jayhawk's first-ever compilation. Music From The North Country: The Jayhawks Anthology spans all six Jayhawks albums, including their debut on Twin-Tone (Blue Earth) and the five albums cut for American Recordings. Music from the North Country will be available as either a single CD or a deluxe double-CD-plus-DVD set. The packages were put together under guidance from Gary Louris.

On July 7th Legacy will release this first ever Anthology. Free 7" vinyl available exclusively at select independent record stores ONLY with purchase of Music From The North Country: The Jayhawks Anthology. Features "Blue" and "Darling Today" and more!
