Eveningland

Eveningland is the second album by indie folk group Hem. It was released on Rounder Records after a delay caused by the folding of the DreamWorks music division. The album features a cover of Johnny Cash's famous song "Jackson," as well as more orchestral arrangements, a change from the sometimes-stark instrumentation of their previous album, Rabbit Songs.
