Spain are a Los Angeles-based alternative rock band founded in 1993 by Josh Haden (son of jazz bass legend Charlie Haden). Initially connected to the 1990s “slowcore” movement, the original line-up included Haden on bass and vocals, Ken Boudakian on lead guitar, Merlo Podlewski on rhythm guitar, and Evan Hartzell on drums. After recording a well-received demo and 7” single, and playing frequently at legendary Silver Lake venue Spaceland (née Pan, currently called The Satellite), Spain signed with Restless Records in 1994. The band travelled to San Francisco in early 1995 and spent a month recording their debut album at the now extant Brilliant Studios, with Norm Kerner (American Music Club) at the producing helm. The debut 1995 album, The Blue Moods Of Spain, garnered the band a devoted cult following and enabled them to tour the U.S., Europe, and Australia. The album was included on many music magazine “best of” lists for the year. In 1996, Spain performed on the landmark French television talk show Nulle Part Ailleurs. During this time they also toured as the opening band for Cocteau Twins during the legendary UK band's final U.S. tour. In the mid-late 1990s, several songs from Blue Moods were featured in different films and TV shows (Phoenix, In God's Hands, Winterschläfer , Garage Days, Popular). A huge Blue Moods poster appeared in an episode ofBeverly Hills, 90210. The Red Hot Chili Peppers covered their song “Spiritual” in concert. In addition, “Spiritual” was recorded by Johnny Cash (on his Grammy-winning, Rick Rubin-produced Unchained), and by Charlie Haden and Pat Metheny on their Grammy-winning Beyond The Missouri Sky. In 1997, film director Wim Wenders commissioned Spain to write and perform a song for his film End Of Violence. The result, “Every Time I Try”, is an audience favorite.In 1999, Spain travelled to the Swedish island of Vaxholm to record their sophomore CD, She Haunts My Dreams. Participating in the recording were the late Swedish jazz pianist Esbjörn Svensson (who contributed keyboard and piano performances along with string arrangements), former Soundtrack of our Lives guitarist Björn Olsson, and sometime R.E.M. and Beck drummer Joey Waronker. With new guitarist/keyboardist Shon “Goldenboy” Sullivan (replacing Ken Boudakian), drummer Will Hughes (Evan Hartzell had parted ways with the band in 1996), acoustic guitarist Podlewski, and new lead guitarist Olsson in tow, Spain toured extensively for the album, headlining large venues across Europe. A song from the album, “Our Love Is Gonna Live Forever”, was featured prominently in an episode of the HBO series Six Feet Under. In 2000, the band, minus Olsson, stayed in Los Angeles to record their third album, I Believe. Shortly before the album was released, Sullivan left the group to concentrate on his solo work, and Podlewski accepted an invitation to play bass for surfing superstar Jack Johnson's fledgling acoustic rock band. Rather than immediately put together a new group from scratch, Haden took an extended break from the band, recording a solo CD for Dreamworks Records (later released on his own Diamond Soul Recordings). A Spain best of compilation, Spirituals: The Best Of Spain, was released in 2003. Haden reformed Spain in 2007 with all-new members and began playing gigs again in their native L.A. Since then they've shared the stage with Tindersticks and the Clientele, and have played at two important music festivals - Tanned Tin 2007 in Spain, and Filter Magazine's Culture Collide 2011 in Los Angeles. A CD/digital single entitled “I'm Still Free” was released in January 2010, and the band, now comprised of, in addition to Haden, lead guitarist Daniel Brummel (from the band Ozma), guitarist/keyboardist Randy Kirk, and drummer Matt Mayhall, recently completed work on their first full-length album of new material in over ten years. “The Soul Of Spain” will be released in May 2012.

The Blue Moods Of Spain It's So True
They say life Is never fair That love's so far away But I know babe It's so true It's so true I know that You feel so alone And you cry yourself to sleep But I know babe It's so true It's so true They say fate Plays cruel jokes And keeps love from you But I know babe It's so true It's so true I know that You feel so alone And you cry yourself to sleep But I know babe It's so true It's so true Ten Nights
Storybook fable is ending As ten angels are descending I forget that you are my only friend Love is my only devotion Ten little steps to the ocean Ten nights to decide Whether I can live alone Ten nights all alone Praying you haven't gone I can't stop love I can't erase What's been written down Storybook fable is ending As ten angels are descending I forget that you are my only friend Dreaming Of Love
Lost my way It's alright Lost my way It's alright I've been dreaming Of love And we're so close And we're so near Oh when we touch Oh we'll disappear Lost my way I don't care Lost my way I don't care I've been dreaming Of love And we're so close And we're so near Oh when we touch Oh we'll disappear Repeat Chorus X2 Untitled #1
Walked away Released from all my crimes Walked away Released from all my crimes But I could never hide What I kept inside Walked away Released from all my sins Walked away Released from all my sins But the cruelest thing Was all my suffering When I held you that night I knew it felt so right I knew it felt so right Walked away Released from all my crimes Walked away Released from all my crimes But I could never hide What I kept inside Her Used-To-Been
She knew it was all over When she turned her back On her used-to-been She knew it was all over When she turned from him She turned to me But what was there to say I see that you've been crying Your old man's arms Like to bear their fists But my arms have hands like The graceful mist And all they want to do Is hold you Ray Of Light
Ray of light I never see Through the passing clouds Or through the trees When you left Into the pouring rain I knew I would never See you again Ray of light Won't shine through When love is through When love is through Late one night I heard you at my door But I pretended like I wasn't home Please forgive Me for what I've done But you know I would've done it Like I did before Ray of light Won't shine through What can I do What can I do... World Of Blue

Love at First Sight I, I never seen you before But it looks like now I gotta know you When you walked right in My pulse shattered and I'll never be the same I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake I gotta know your name I gotta hear your voice If I could hold your hand If I could kiss your lips It'd be so fine, so fine I, I never felt like this Well, I'm nervous and my hands are shaking But now I'm so in love If I could know you, I would never be the same I gotta know your name I gotta hear your voice If I could hold your hand If I could kiss your lips I wouldn't have to wish That it would all come true Oh, that would be so good It'd be so fine, so fine The Fighter It took so long It was so sad To watch the fighter Go down In flames Who was to blame Things didn't turn out The way we wanted To blot out The light of giving To carry out the deeds we pay There can be no other Recourse for living But to hold you closer to me I'm always on the run and I hate copy paste for god's sake It didn't last But I was so glad To see the wretched Come out ahead All of the poor And all of the meek Will be remembered At the reckoning To blot out The light of giving To carry out the deeds we pay There can be no other Recourse for living But to hold you closer to me But to hold you closer to me It Could Be Heaven It could be heaven Up there, up above the sky I hope there's a place for me When I'm through with this life When I'm through with this life It could be heaven you know Where I watch the river flow Lord how I hope and pray That's a place I can go That's a place I can go

Station 2 Long ago There was a place We would go To celebrate This was when we were kids Down the hill Across the bridge Into the sand Beneath the ridge Just below PCH Stumbling all the way Stumbling all the way We pulled our sheets And stuffed our beds With dirty clothes And helmet heads We snuck out the window After we Got to the beach We were out Of their reach We dug holes to keep warm We burned the Times We burned the Times After all Those were the times I'd give Anything to go back And stare into her eyes You copy you paste you lose Years went by I grew up My heart was ready My head was stuck I ran away as far as I could There was a girl I left behind I'll never forget Caroline Cast aside I never told her why I watched her cry I watched her cry When I finally moved back I drove to that street Up at the top Where we used to meet I looked out from the edge of the cliff I thought of the ways I could pretend Thought the days Would never end Now they're gone And I'm standing here Looking down Looking down After all Those were the times I'd give Anything to go back And stare into her eyes
