CHRIS WOLLARD & THE SHIP THIEVES "Chris Wollard & The Ship Thieves" (LTD to 110)

No Idea Release NIR-247Released: February 17, 2009 • On NEW, LIMITED-TO-110 METALLIC SILVER & CLEAR SWIRL!• We love Wollard. That's a given, right? Well, that said, Chris defies expectations by turning in an album of varied songs, ranging from rockers to acoustic gems, to sleepy soundtracks for an all-night drive. In amongst the traditional sounds are tasteful flourishes and touches that you notice more each time you give it a spin. Not only that, but we went all-out on the fancy packaging this time around:CD: Elegant 8-panel fold-out Digipack. Will not clean your toilet, but might do the windows if you tip.LP: Elegant jacket + huge 2-sided, full-color, six-panel, fold-out insert (11" x 33"). Colored vinyl. May or may not come over and do your laundry for a slice of your pizza."These days, there are as many country-rocking singer / songwriters as there are baristas in LA with head shots. So Chris Wollard's solo debut, & The Ship Thieves, isn't going to grab anyone by
