Thanks for making this available again. A great short set by a man already deeply missed.

This recording is from the now defunct WOXY.com Lounge Acts archive. This was recorded live on the air on July 14, 2009.  As the audio engineer for hundreds of these sessions, this one was always one of my favorites.  Given Jason Molina's recent passing, I thought this should be out there again.  

From 2009:
"Magnolia Electric Co. have been around for some time now, crooning heartfelt words in front of a wall of distinguished instrumentation. The band, which was formerly known as Songs: Ohia but has always been the project of singer songwriter Jason Molina. 

Molina is a product of the midwest, spending formative years in our home state of Ohio but now resides in the UK, where he continues to be an incredibly prolific songwriter. In advance of the new album from Magnolia Electric Co., Josephine, the band stopped into the WOXY.com Lounge for a rare studio performance.

In addition to the excellent tunes, Jason chats about recording the album with Steve Albini, the passing of former bass player Evan Farrell and his ability to schedule his songwriting opportunities, among other things.

Enjoy and share this beautiful performance from Magnolia Electric Co.
