Sherwood remained active leading his big band into the late 1940's and began the start of a successful acting career, eventually starring with Frank Sinatra in InchPal JoeyInch in 1957. Presented here are sessions culled from the height of Sherwood's big band career, featuring guest appearances by vocal group Hall of Famers the Skylarks, and female vocalist Gale Landis. All selections newly remastered.

Described as having a transcendent live show by indie radio touchstone KEXP their debut full-length 2009's Listen to the Thunder (Mt. Fuji produced by Grammy Award-winner Kory Kruckenberg) was the culmination of years of playing together at every kind of gig imaginable and a faithful document of who The Maldives are as a live band. This time around the band took a different approach by working with Shawn Simmons (The Head and the Heart Grand Hallway Lemolo) who brought the band's assembled creativity together in a different way and explores their combined vision with expertly crafted songs that will transport you to another time and place altogether. This is where songwriter Jason Dodson's storytelling culminates into characters and places that blur the lines between fiction and nonfiction the past and the present.
