Multi-platinum, Grammy winners Jars of Clay have often claimed that their records begin with a question. The group's latest studio release, Who We Are Instead, tackles the issue of who we are truly called to be as Christians in a world that is not our home. Gracefully balancing the mirror themes of joy and suffering, the band maintains their distinctive harmonies and signature guitar sounds while musically exploring gospel, blues, rock and organic influences. Primarily self-produced in Jars of Clay's own Sputnik Studios, the project also employs the talents of Ron Aniello (Lifehouse, Guster, BNL) as well as friends Ashley Cleveland, Ken Coomer (Wilco) and Ben Mize (Counting Crows).
