He’s toured the country as a folk troubadour as well as the frontman for jam band supergroup Hard Working Americans. A master songwriter a quarter-century in the making, Todd Snider christened himself a preacher over the pandemic and opened up the First Agnostic Church of Hope and Wonder’ – LiveForLiveMusic This is a folk record with funk, street-singer and psychedelic elements, mixed by multi-instrumentalist Tchad Blake (Tom Waits, Elvis Costello). Todd Snider calls it “P-Folk” or “Folkadelic”: “With this album I had the idea for the sound first, I think. I wanted to do what I was calling ‘funk in the back and busking up front’ with [Beatles’] white album-y shit scattered about. I had done a lot of listening to and looking into Parliament and James Brown and lots of reggae music, too.” The album was borne from Todd Snider’s popular weekly livestream series from The Purple Building in East Nashville (pictured on the album cover). “The songs started for me when Jeff Austin passed away”, he says. “I made up ‘Sail On, My Friend’, then the touring stopped and so I started a Sunday morning show. Viewers started jokingly referring to it as a church and to me as a reverend.” Artist Todd Snider Genre Americana / Country Label Aimless Records Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Turn Me Loose (I'll Never Be the Same) The Get Together Never Let a Day Go By That Great Pacific Garbage Patch Handsome John Sail on, My Friend Battle Hymn of the Album Stoner Yodel Number One Agnostic Preacher's Lament The Resignation vs. The Comeback Special Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Todd Snider and more from Americana / Country View Product Quick View Todd Snider Crank It, We’re Doomed Americana / Country | Aimless Records | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 10th November 2023 £23.00 Select options Todd Snider Crank It, We’re Doomed £23.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Aimless Records Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 10th November 2023 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Todd Snider Return of the Storyteller Americana / Country | Aimless Records | 2LP Released 23rd September 2022 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Todd Snider Return of the Storyteller £23.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Aimless Records SKU: AR38507 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 23rd September 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Todd Snider Songs For The Daily Planet Americana / Country | Plain Recordings | 180g, 1LP Released 2nd November 2018 £35.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Todd Snider Songs For The Daily Planet £35.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Plain Recordings SKU: PLAIN210LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 2nd November 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Poco Collected Americana / Country | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 22nd February 2019 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Poco Collected £25.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP2280C Formats: 180g, 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 22nd February 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Alejandro Escovedo The Crossing Americana / Country | Yep Roc | 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 10th September 2018 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alejandro Escovedo The Crossing £22.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Yep Roc SKU: LPYEP2591 Formats: 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 10th September 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Alan Jackson The Greatest Hits Collection Americana / Country | Sony Legacy | 2LP Released 26th June 2020 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alan Jackson The Greatest Hits Collection £23.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Sony Legacy SKU: 19439737261 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 26th June 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Ha Ha Tonka Lessons Americana / Country | Bloodshot | 2LP Released 23rd September 2013 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ha Ha Tonka Lessons £23.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Bloodshot SKU: BS207LP Formats: 2LP Released Date: 23rd September 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Old 97's Most Messed Up Americana / Country | ATO | 1LP Released 13th May 2014 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Old 97's Most Messed Up £21.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: ATO SKU: ATO98718 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 13th May 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View A.A.
