Damien Jurado is an American indie rock singer/songwriter from Seattle, Washington. Over the years, he has released albums on many labels; today, his primary label is Secretly Canadian. ==Music career== Damien Jurado's solo career began during the mid-1990s, releasing lo-fi folk based recordings on his own cassette-only label, Casa Recordings. Gaining a local cult following in Seattle, he was brought to the attention of Sub Pop Records by Sunny Day Real Estate singer Jeremy Enigk. After two 7" releases (''Motorbike'' and ''Trampoline'') Sub Pop issued his first full album, ''Waters Ave S'' in 1997. His second album ''Rehearsals for Departure'', released in 1999, was a relative breakthrough. Produced by Ken Stringfellow (The Posies, Big Star), Jurado's second album established him as both a singer and songwriter of great ability. He often makes use of found sound and field recording techniques, and has experimented with different forms of tape recordings. In 2000 he released ''Postcards and Audio Letters'', a collection of found audio letters and fragments that he had found from sources such as thrift store tape players and answering machines. Also released in 2000 was ''Ghost of David'', Jurado's bleakest and most personal sounding record to date. ''I Break Chairs'' (2002) was produced by long-time friend, Pedro the Lion's David Bazan. It was his last album for Sub Pop, and was a much rockier, electric affair. After signing for the Indiana-based label Secretly Canadian, Damien Jurado reverted to his trademark folk ballad-based style, releasing four more albums: ''Where Shall You Take Me?'' (2003), ''On My Way to Absence'', (2005) ''And Now That I'm In Your Shadow'' (2006) and the rockier ''Caught in the Trees'' (2008).〔Thiessen, Brock.("Damien Jurado Gets Personal" ), ''Exclaim!'', September 2008.〕 In 2009, Damien teamed with his brother Drake to issue an LP under the moniker ''Hoquiam'', released on February 23, 2010. The album preceded Damien's next solo release, dubbed ''Saint Bartlett'', which was released May 25, 2010 and was produced by label mate Richard Swift. After touring the album with Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground, Jurado began work on his next album. On February 21, 2012 he released his 10th studio album, ''Maraqopa'', his sixth for Secretly Canadian. Jurado's latest album, ''Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Son'', was released on January 21, 2014. 〔http://www.spin.com/articles/damien-jurado-new-album-brothers-and-sisters-of-the-eternal-son-father-john-misty/〕 The album is the third straight collaboration with producer Richard Swift.
