Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds are back with their 16th full length titled Skeleton Tree. Early reviews indicate this is one of Nick Cave's most powerful and emotionally resonate statements to date. The band were already ensconced in the studio when the tragic news broke of the death of Nick's son following a falling accident, so the resultant record is infused with an unexpected poignancy. We start the show with two older Nick Cave tracks before airing the stark 'Jesus Alone' from Skeleton Tree.
In the second part of the show we feature brand tracks from Aussie acts Liz Stringer, Megan Bernard and rockin' Melbourne-based two-piece This Way North. We air part two of our interview with BC-based outlaw country singer Joey Only and finish up with a fascinating ambient/experimental piece by Montreal's Chris Strickland, from his Animal Expert record.
