Jens Kuross

Jens Kuross’s Crooked Songs is by far his warmest and most intimate-sounding yet. It plays out with the sound of Jens moving around in his kitchen; the teaspoon clinks against the cup; the floor creaks. It is the sound of life and a perfect way to end such a raw, bold set of songs that are quietly profound and powerful in their unvarnished delivery. This album is something special.

Jens Kuross’s Crooked Songs, his Woodsist debut, is a revelation. Once an LA session musician and Idaho cabinet maker, Kuross now offers a mysterious, warm, and heart-stirring sound. Watch the video for his lead single Beggar’s Nation. Hayden Pedigo says, “Kuross has tapped into something people need to hear.”
