Digital Booklet

This self-titled debut album from Los Angeles roots trio Fairground Saints is packed with warm and wistful sounds that play off the delicate contradictions at the heart of the music. The band consists of singer and guitarist Mason Van Valin, Elijah Edwards on vocals, guitar, mandolin, keyboards, Dobro and accordion and Megan McAllister on vocals, guitar and dulcimer, each sharing songwriting duties. For this debut, the group shook off all inhibitions and took a playful approach to the writing and recording, allowing the three members to hold true to their vision of creating "a very love driven album.” There’s no filter on the emotion coming through in the songs, all based in visceral feeling, with lyrics as real as any conversation with an ex-girlfriend or boyfriend. Produced by Matthew Wilder (No Doubt, Christina Aguilera), the album showcases the trio's elegant melodies and lush three part harmonies.
"Our debut album is very love driven and most of the music we write is motivated by the love or lack there of in our lives. Love is something we all experience in some way and some point in our lives, so we hope that people can find a connection to the stories in our music. Something that they can relate to. We hope that it will help people through the beautiful and sometimes tragic aspects of being in love."
- Megan McAllister, vocalist/guitarist
