Release Notes:

On Tuesday, March 14, 2006, Verve Forecast will release American Myth, the new
album from the acclaimed young singer/songwriter Jackie Greene includes thirteen
new songs written by Greene and produced by Steve Berlin of Los Lobos (Rickie
Lee Jones, Susan Tedeschi).

American Myth features multi-instrumentalist Greene on vocals, guitars, dobro,
piano, harmonica, and percussion. He is also joined by a top-notch band of Pete
Thomas (drums, percussion, trash can), Davey Faragher (vocals, bass), both of
whom are members of Elvis Costello's longtime group, The Imposters; and Val
McCallum (vocals, guitars, banjo, slide guitar, baritone). Steve Berlin also
contributes with turns on mellotron, vibes, and percussion, and the whole group
is joined by a number of guest musicians including a slamming horn section on
four of the album's tracks.

From the swamp-like feel of the anthemic opener "Hollywood," the record rolls
right into the rollicking "So Hard To Find My Way." Greene shows off his range
by cranking it up on the in-your-face "I'm So Gone" and the heartland rock of
"Farewell, So Long, Goodbye" and dialing it back on the album's meditative "Love
Song 2 a.m." and the wistful "Never Satisfied."

Greene's inspired songwriting, mastery of wordplay, and flawless composition
technique are showcased throughout American Myth. Nowhere is that more evident
than on the exquisite "Supersede," a catchy, melodic epic. Other standout tunes
on the album are the powerful blues-soaked rocker "Cold Black Devil/14 Miles,"
and the plaintive "When You're Walking Away."

Following the release of American Myth, Greene will continue with his active
tour schedule, bringing his captivating live performance to venues across the
nation. For dates and more information, visit www.jackiegreene.com.
