Old Salt Union BIO:
Old Salt Union once again enlisted GRAMMY-winning banjoist and Compass co-founder Alison Brown to produce the follow-up to their self-titled Compass Records debut. The resulting album, Where the Dogs Dont Bite, builds on this non-traditional string bands varied musical backgrounds for a wildly entertaining, eclectic batch of songs.

The quintet Ryan Murphey (banjo), Justin Wallace (lead vocals and mandolin), John Brighton (violin), Jesse Farrar (lead vocals and bassist) and Graham Curry (guitar) have continued to hone and develop their sound through relentless touring, cultivating a steadfast fanbase drawn to their high-energy shows.

Coming from varied musical backgrounds, Old Salt Unions collective melting pot of styles and musical vocabularies informs their fresh approach to modern string band music and has helped carve a unique niche for this St. Louis MO and Belleville, Illinois roots outfit.

Farrar, nephew of Son Volts Jay Farrar, kicks off the album with God You Dont Need, a hook laden ode to a relationship gone bad set against a tapestry of strings and an eerily compelling banjo melody. Label mate Bobby Osborne guests on Tell Me So, a nod to the bluegrass side of the bands musical sensibilities featuring lead vocals and songwriting by mandolinist Justin Wallace. Violinist John Brighton delivers the gypsy- tinged instrumental Johanns Breakdown, which pulls from jazz and classical progressions, and Wallace delivers the haunting title track, Where The Dogs Dont Bite. The dark, but heartfelt song features triple-layered guitar harmonies, stacked vocals and a group sing-along that recalls last call at a corner pub in the rust belt, a fitting closing to this musically diverse and compelling release.
