All These Perfect Crosses

“All These Perfect Crosses” is a collection of songs that came from the sessions related to “Faith In The Future”, “We All Want The Same Things”, and “I Need A New War”. For Craig, these three records are one body of work, and the songs on this collection are pieces of that larger narrative. For various reasons, these songs didn’t appear on the records they were recorded with, but they still tell a part of the same story—modern people trying to make it through, to keep their heads above water, to live past their mistakes, to survive. Originally released for Record Store Day in 2020. Orders will ship on or around Feb 26 2021.

With a collection of outtakes, demos, and acoustic reworkings from his three previous solo records, the Hold Steady frontman re-examines familiar characters from new angles.
