Amen Dunes releasing 'Cowboy Worship' EP in January
- News
Amen Dunes is releasing his 'Cowboy Worship' EP on 19th January as a follow up to his album 'Love' that came out earlier this year via Sacred Bones. The first song has been revealed
Speaking about new track, Damon McMahon aka. Amen Dunes said “I tried this one solo and it didn't feel right. Thankfully Ben lived upstairs and was up for playing. He came down and we didn't have to say much to each other, which was a sign it would work. There isn't much talking in Amen Dunes; things either flow naturally or not at all'.
Cowboy Worship is an attempt to give life to some of the music that didn’t make it onto 'Love' From a blown-out version of ‘Green Eyes’ featuring Harvey Milk’s Stephen Tanner, to a darker and mellower ‘I Can’t Dig It’ as Damon McMahon originally arranged it upon writing the song in China.
Many of the original intentions for the music that were lost in the Love sessions are revived. In addition there is a band version of Through Donkey Jaw’s ‘Lezzy Head’, featuring Dunes mainstays Jordi Wheeler and Parker Kindred, and the cover of This Mortal Coil’s interpretation of the Tim Buckley's ‘Song to the Siren’, featuring Ben Greenberg (Hubble) on guitar.

Nick Talbot will be long missed
- News
Last week we lost three musicians, Bobby Keys, Ian McLagen and Nick Talbot. The first two guys had as far as anyone could tell, survived the ‘Rock n Roll’ experience to a reasonable age. Nick Talbot was however taken from this planet far too early. Having said that though Nick in his short 37 years was undoubtedly establised a fine gentleman and an extremely talented musician and journalist.
I asked a few of the folks at Rock Club Towers for their thoughts.
"That Cecil Sharp House gig was wonderful. He made it like his living room. It was definitely wit that shone through, but also a very rare humility. He was completely understated, especially given the quality - and unusualness - of his music. Certainly he was not celebrated enough in his short lifetime".
"Outstandingly intelligent, compassionate, fascinating and witty' was how his manager Michelle Hilborne described him. The RCUK interview demonstrates that perfectly".
"Personally I'll always remember him for telling his mum off when she called out what song she wanted to hear during the encore at Cecil Sharp House".
A short time ago Nick answered some questions for us in one of the best interviews we have ever published. You can read that interview HERE
Nick, you will be long missed!
