Bruce Hornsby’s arrangement of Dinosaur Jr.’s “Feel The Pain” will be featured on a new album called Join The Ritual, due out September 24th on Jagjaguwar Records. The compilation pays homage to the artists and fellow independent titans like Drag City, K Records, Too Pure, Touch & Go and more who originally inspired Jagjaguwar to take a seat at the table and enter the wild, dark magic ritual of music.
