Jason McCue's Wasteland will be released on August 16 on Fluff and Gravy Records. Wasteland ranges from soaring full-production rock songs such as "Even Though," "The Good Sheep" and "Accumulation," to hushed, intimate melodic songs like "Shadow" and "In the Garden." Lyrically, Wasteland is about reckoning with the reality of living as an American adult in the 21st century, as well as the expectations and realizations of growing up. The album deals with the themes of following leaders, pushing problems aside for later, and the nature of cleaning up a mess.
