Jars Speaks on Recent Album...

Jars of Clay have released their first ever official hits compilation, entitled Greatest Hits. Guitarist Steve Mason reflects on the project, while looking to the future...

"Hey friends –

You’re friend Steve here. We have some exciting news for you. Just released to the masses is the new collection of songs they call the "Jars of Clay Greatest Hits." I am a bit in shock that we’d ever have something like this released, but it returns us to gratitude for all of you that have listened, followed the band, and come out to the shows…further encouraging us to make more music! It’s a story that continues into its 15th year.

We’ve tried to get the highlights – the songs you’d hear on the radio, and most importantly…include a newly recorded song! We wrote "Love Is A Protest" as a hopeful signpost in our musical journey. That’s what we want to continue to be about in all that we do.

Now, it should be noted that these albums are typically released at the end of a recording career. This is certainly not the case! We’re headed into the studio in April/May of this year to begin a new full length album. Stay tuned for more fun..."
