The North Carolina-based roots rock collective Truth Salvage Co. formed in 2005 around the talents of guitarist/vocalist Tim Jones, keyboardist/vocalist Walker Young, guitarist/vocalist Scott Kinnebrew, drummer/vocalist Bill Smith, keyboard player Adam Grace, and bassist Joe Edel. Boasting four singer/songwriters and a history that spanned the East and West Coasts, the group's unique blend of Southern rock and indie pop was honed in Los Angeles and perfected in the mountains of North Carolina. The group's eponymous debut album was produced by Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes and released on Silver Arrow Records in November 2009. The band supported the album with a tour that included appearances at several summer festivals in 2010. During 2011, Joe Edel left the band; he was initially replaced by Frank DiVanna, but by the end of the year Dean Moore became the band's new bassist. Truth Salvage Co. began working on their second album in 2012, producing the record with the assistance of Jon Ashley. The resulting Pick Me Up was released in July 2013. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
