Here is the first solo album from John Linnell, one half of They Might Be Giants. Years in the making, State Songs is a thematic collection, with each song about a different state (we're not telling which ones). John Linnell began this project for the Hello Recording Club, who released an EP in 1994, and plans eventually to bring his playful yet intellectually stimulating touch to songs about all 50 states. Voted the 9th Most Beautiful Person in People magazine's online poll, Linnell has also appeared with TMBG multiple times on the Conan O'Brien, David Letterman and the Tonight shows. He continues to tour frequently with They Might Be Giants partner John Flansburgh and band.
