Without question, Jason Falkner stands among the most gifted musicians, songwriters, and
producers in modern popular music. Beyond the acclaimed recordings he has made as a solo
artist and with his influential bands—The Three O’Clock, Jellyfish, The Grays, and TV
Eyes—Falkner’s extraordinary talents have been sought out by an impressive roster of artists
including Beck, Paul McCartney, Aimee Mann, St. Vincent, Noel Gallagher, Brendan Benson, and Air.
Yet Falkner’s true artistic destiny lay in his solo work. In 1996, he signed with Elektra Records
and released two critically celebrated albums: Presents Author Unknown and Can You Still
Feel? Written, produced, and performed by Falkner himself, both records showcased his
remarkable ability to blend sophisticated songwriting, inventive arrangements, and flawless
musicianship. Decades later, they remain touchstones for fans and fellow musicians alike.
Omnivore Recordings is proud to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Falkner’s landmark debut,
Presents Author Unknown. For this special edition, Falkner returned to the original multitrack
tapes to create an all-new remix, revealing greater depth, punch, and sonic detail while
remaining faithful to the spirit of the original release. Side 4 of this double album contain the
outtake “My Home Is Not A House” and three 4-track demos of songs from the album.
Thirty years after its original release, Presents Author Unknown remains a shining example of
timeless songwriting and fearless musical craftsmanship. This new remix not only reaffirms
the album’s lasting brilliance—it reminds us why Jason Falkner continues to be regarded as a
musician’s musician, an artist whose creativity, vision, and passion remain as vital as ever.
