From Jade Tree:

Following a critically acclaimed debut album for Made In Mexico, singer/songwriter David Bazan returned to his Seattle home studio to craft the bulk of Winners Never Quit - a haunted collection of new material that traces the fictional story of a man who vows to maintain his good name despite a slew of devious activity and malicious intent.

Stripped down to a voice and a guitar, Bazan is a modern-day folk champion. Behind a band, he loses his timidity and commands attention with an impassioned voice and a compelling narrative. In either sphere, Bazan is an accomplished artist and unique talent.
