Who on earth is Jens Kuross?
He’s been hiding in plain sight: a fumbled career as an LA session musician and songwriter, a cabinet maker in Idaho. Crooked Songs, his debut for Woodsist, is mysterious, warm, and heart-stirring. Using just voice and electric piano, the music delicately enswathed by ambient synth – minimal without losing sight of his songcraft Crooked Songs suggests an otherworldly naturalism akin to a ghost returning to earth to observe the passing of time, life, and light.
“I genuinely believe this album represents the music Jens was always meant to create. There’s something incredibly heavy, beautiful, touching, and magical about these crooked songs. I hope you hear that in them, too” - Hayden Pedigo
All songs written, performed, recorded and mixed by Jens Kuross at his home in Boise, Idaho.
