Phil Cook

Justin Vernon associate Phil Cook, who played with him in Gayngs and pre-Bon Iver band DeYarmond Edison, and was a founding member of Megafaun with other DeYarmond Edison members, is releasing his first solo album this year. It’s called Southland Mission, and is out September 11 via Thirty Tigers and Middle West. He co-produced it with his brother and bandmate Brad Cook in the Fleet Foxes-loved Blue Ridge Mountains.
