Exclusive Song Premiere: Chris Jones & Night Drivers' "Bed of Snow"

We are honored to be able to partner with Chris Jones and Night Drivers to premiere their brand new song "Bed of Snow." Befitting of our pandemic times, the song speaks of how there is hope even in the midst of the toughest times. Click HERE to listen to the song.
Chris Jones talks about the song which he co-wrote with Thomm Jutz, "I live in northern Alberta where snow covers the ground for at least 6 months. While I was on my in-laws' farm I thought about the hope that lies under that snow, even after a bad year. It became a metaphor for the pandemic period, and I got together with Thomm Jutz via video chat and wrote the song."
"Bed of Snow" is taken from Chris Jones and Night Rider's btand new album Make Each Second Last which releases today. The album is their most diverse album to date. There are takes on travel, from "We Needed This Ride" to "Whither You Roam" to "Riding The Chief," lost love ("Quiet Click") and life at home ("Leave It At The Gate") and abroad ("Silver City"), but there are also meditations on less intimate matters, whether it's the encouragement to speak one's mind in "We Need To Hear From You," the compelling observation of "Everybody's Got A Line" or the compassionate consideration of common humanity in "They're Lost Too" and cautious, almost wistful hopefulness of "Bed Of Snow."
Whether written with GRAMMY-nominee Thomm Jutz, frequent collaborator Jon Weisberger, new colleague van't Hof, veteran mandolinist Mark Stoffel - that would be the album's lone instrumental, "Groundhog's Retreat" - or by Jones himself, there's not a song or performance in the collection that doesn't bear Jones' indelibly distinctive stamp.
You can download or stream the album HERE.
