Meeting at the intersection of the loner-folk, cosmic country and kraut-laden choogle, Jeffrey Silverstein is back with his third full-length LP

Doggone was recorded in Portland, Oregon in January of 2025 at the Center for Sound, Light and Color Therapy with longtime collaborator Ryan Oxford. It features Akron/Family founding member Dana Buoy (drums), Rick Pedrosa (Rose City Band/Abronia) on pedal steel & guitar, and Alex Chapman (bass). Guest contributions come from Devendra Banhart and Portland singer-songwriter Merle Law. The album will be mastered by Amy Dragon (Nathaniel Rateliff, Big Thief, Moon Duo). Doggone centers around themes of community, aging, recognizing your gift is in your blood, carving out your own version of success, planting seeds/growing roots, and the impact of place on creative work. Silverstein continues to explore the intersection of loner-folk, cosmic country, and kraut-laden choogle found across his previous releases. While writing the songs for this record, Silverstein discovered his uncle was a songwriter and manager for North Country Band, a 1970s Grateful Dead-inspired country-rock group from Minnesota. Silverstein had been DJing the album & showing live performances to friends before knowing his uncle's involvement. This furthered his understanding of his uncle's life in music (performing with Doc Watson, putting on shows for Jerry Jeff Walker, etc.) and gave him the inspiration and motivation to keep pressing on with the album.
