My friends and I have just finished recording a new album called Sleep Through the Static. At this point in my life I weigh about 190 lbs and my ear hairs are getting longer. I also have a couple of kids. My wife popped them out, but I helped. Some of the songs on this album are about making babies. Some of the songs are about raising them. Some of the songs are about the world that these children will grow up in; a world of war and love, and hate, and time and space. Some of the songs are about saying goodbye to people I love and will miss.

We recorded the songs onto analog tape machines powered by the sun in Hawaii and Los Angeles. One day, JP Plunier walked into the studio and told us, "It has been 4 to 6 feet and glassy for long enough," and so we gave him a variety of wind and rain as well as sun and so on. And Robert Carranza helped to put it all in the right places.

After inviting Zach Gill to join Adam Topol, Merlo Podlewski, and myself on our last world tour, we decided to make him an official member of our gang. So our gang now has a piano player, which probably makes us much less intimidating, but Merlo, our bass player, is 6'3" so we are still confident.

All of these songs have been on my mind for a while and it is nice to share them. I am continually grateful to my wife who is typing this letter as I dictate it to her.

I hope you enjoy this album.

Mahalo for listening,

Jack Johnson

Best Yet

Our children introduced us to Jack Johnson several years ago. His music is contagious, thought-provoking and mellow. There is no screaming or swearing -- it's relaxing and upbeat. Some of the songs have lyrics that are repeated...and repeated...and repeated. However, we enjoyed the CD so much that we sent copies of it to my 5 brothers and sisters. Highly recommended.

Jack's Best

This is Jack Johnson's best and most complete album. If you like Jack Johnson this CD is a must. If you like acoustic rock and relaxing music, this album is a must. I highly recommend this album.

Ahhhh...

What's cool about Jack is that even his most depressing tunes are relaxing in that laid-back Hawaiian style. There's a lot of disappointment in the state of the world on this album, and a lot of interesting commentary, but the tunes themselves are still calming and uplifting. I love Same Girl and Angel and oh, too many to list. Bonus: my kiddos love it too, and it's so good that it lulls the littlest one to restful sleep on long car rides...
Very cool to know about the solar energy recording sessions, but I would've bought it anyway. I listen to it every day!

Solid CD

I'm a new fan of Jack Johnson and this CD took three or four complete listens before I got it but, after that, I was hooked. Listened to it many times since and after putting it away for a couple of months, I took it back out to listen to chill out.
I like the music. Mellow and, as someone else said, thought provoking.
