Title: What the Brothers Sang Artist: Dawn McCarthy & Bonnie Prince Billy Label: Drag City Product Type: VINYL LP UPC: 781484055518 Genre: Indie Rock/Pop Release Date: 2013-02-19 Number of Discs: 1
Vinyl LP pressing. 2013 collaboration. As children, the music of the Everly Brothers touched Dawn McCarthy and Bonnie Billy; it touches Dawn's children and the little "prince" within Bonnie today, and makes them dance and sing. What the Brothers Sang is no mere gesture of nostalgia; these new versions rethink the Everly Brothers for the audience of listeners today, people who naturally might have no knowledge or experience with those songs. Why should they? It's not everyone who trawls through the dust of the past for their pleasures. Most of US live today and so, for today, these songs are made.
