Jessie James And The Outlaws - Album Release Tour - The Price Of Gum

The Price of Gum is a strong and compelling debut album from Jessie James and the Outlaws that marries a rich and clean analogue production aesthetic with evocative songs that reflect the spirit our troubled times. Being Outlaws, they don’t like to be pinned down, but can be described as alt- electric folk reminiscent of late 60’s and 70’s folk, pop and psychedelia; think Neil Young, the Phoenix Foundation and Gillian Welch.

”The Price of Gum is an accomplished, emotive work. Characterised by detailed lyrical storytelling, refreshingly icy arrangements which seem to sonically reference the beauty of the natural outdoor landscape of our country, an accomplished sense of retro-psychedelica and an unconventional, yet hip-hitting sense of rhythmic emphasis - The Price of Gum, stands clear as one of the few local musical singularities I have encountered in 2010.” – Martyn Pepperell

“From the very first beat of ‘Angila’ I knew that I was in for a well-crafted, un-predictable listen...intrinsically Kiwi in-fused with its laid back, spacious lope with exciting dynamic shift within and between songs” – Warren Maxwell
