A critically-acclaimed solo artist, Jon Auer is also the singer/songwriter/co-founder of The Posies and a current member of musical legends Big Star. On his most recent solo release Songs From the Year of Our Demise, Auer displays his undeniable knack for combining the highly melodic with the emotionally and psychologically complex, arguably mining more intimate and cinematic territories than in any years previous and in the process creating the best reviewed work of his career. NPR picked Songs… as one of the best releases in 2006 and in the three years since Auer has toured everywhere from Australia to Zurich and many points between. His one-man troubadour-style show is the perfect way to experience his compositions and stories at their most revealing and rewarding.

**** (Four Stars) – Uncut Magazine “Phonograph’s self-titled debut sounds surprisingly assured for the work of such a new band. Balancing out synths and pedal-steel with a twangy roots-pop sensibility, the disc impresses with both the depth of its songwriting and the impeccable musicianship that backs it up.” – NPR’s World Cafe “Incorporating elements of electronic music, jazz and British shoegaze… Phonograph creates a unique, complex sonic landscape.” – Paste "Trying to tip toe away from the alt-country label that their 2007 self-titled debut helped brand them, Phonograph releases a time-mashing album that references 60s’ pop melodies, ‘70s folk guitar and ‘80s electronic sounds, with an eye to the past and a sensibility in the present." -New York Post
