Review
Miranda La Fleur, Readings St Kilda
Demons is the second volume of the Cowboy Junkies’s four-part ‘Nomad’ series, with their first volume, Remnin Park, released eight months ago. Having planned to create a collaborative album with their long-time folk artist friend Vic Chesnutt, the project turned out to be a tribute album to Chesnutt, following his tragic death in late 2009.
Demons covers songs from all across Chesnutt’s career, including ‘West of Rome’, ‘Betty Lonely’ and ‘We Hovered with Short Wings’. This is a beautiful tribute album that sees the Cowboy Junkies not straying far from the original arrangements, but embellishing on their own unique sound.
Miranda La Fleur is from Readings St Kilda.
