COWBOY JUNKIES

Sunday 6 November 2022 2022

The dreamy and melancholic alt-country from twangband Cowboy Junkies had been the ultimate addiction for the lovers of the genre for over 35 years. Saying the Junkies “cover” songs doesn’t quite do them justice. Like greats from the classic pop standards era, the Junkies interpret the music of others. They embrace the songs, adapting them in their own style.

The band’s latest release, Songs of the Recollection, finds the band as distinctive and individual as when they started. Long admired for their carefully chosen covers, the new album consists of nine songs by some of the band’s favorite artists. Some of the tracks are newly recorded, while some are collected from earlier projects.

Listen to Songs of the Recollection, and you’ll hear works originally written and recorded by Neil Young, Gordon Lightfoot, Bob Dylan, The Cure, Gram Parsons, Vic Chesnutt, The Rolling Stones and David Bowie that the Junkies make their own – and make them sound perfectly natural beside one another

“ Met hun magische melange van folk, country en rock, 'Songs of the Recollection' behoudt Cowboy Junkies hun hoge standaard van creatieve interpretatie en expressie “
